Cucumber Salad
From GFM
<p>My gr-grandma made this quite often in the summer when the cukes came in. Their farm was in south east Indiana on the Ohio River. I spent a lot of time there when I was a kid.</p>Source: Anna Alvida Westerkamm (Entered by Closed Account)
Serves: 4-6 servings
Ingredients
2-3
Cucumbers, sliced
1 whole
lemon, juiced
salt & pepper to taste
1 pkg
artificial sweetener
1/2
onion, sliced
Step by Step Instructions
- Slice cucumbers and onion into very, very thin slices. I use a grater for the cukes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Toss to mix all.
- Place the slices in a colander over a bowl to drain for about 90 minutes.
- Squeeze remaining liquid from the cuke mixture and place them in a bowl. Squeeze the juice of the lemon on to the cukes and add packet of sweetener (or teaspoon of sugar) and mix well. Add more sweetener as desired.
