This is a nice little twist on that good old cucumber salad. I found this recipe in Gardening News. Cooking time is the standing time.
Directions:
1
Add the salt to the cucumbers and let them stand in a large bowl.
2
After 30 minutes the juice will have drained from the cucumbers.
3
Drain the juice from the bowl.
4
Rub a second large bowl with the garlic halves. (optional).
5
In the second bowl mix the oil, vinegar, water, and sugar.
6
Add drained cucumbers and mix well.
7
Sprinkle with pepper and paprika.
8
Cover and chill for 30 minutes before serving.
9
Enjoy.

Very nice tasting salad, just tangy enough, yet sweet as well! Especially liked the subtle flavor of garlic, although another time I might add just a tiny bit more since I like it so much! Definitely a keeper of a recipe! Thanks for sharing! [Tagged, made & reviewed for a teammate in our vegetarian group in the Vegetarian/Vegan Recipe Swap]
