I don't think it's officially summer, until we've eaten Cucumber salad. It's light, cool, and delicious. And it goes with just about any meal. A family favorite...
2-3 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. dill weed
1 Tbsp. honey
1 Tbsp. sugar
2 Tbsp. vinegar
1/2 c. mayo
Slice cucumbers & set aside. Mix remaining ingredients together. Pour over cucumbers & stir. Cool in fridge; serve. The dressing seems to multiply, so you can add more cucumbers. Some people add onions, but as neither my son nor I enjoy raw onions, I leave them out.
this reminded me of growing up. Ma always had a small dish of cucumbers somewhere on the table...usually with just oil and vinegar and a little mayo.
