My mom just called it "pickled cucumber salad". Grandma says it's German, Dad says its Polish, my Husband says it's Swedish. I just call it Old-World...
Ingredients
- 5-6 large cucumbers, halved and thinly sliced shopping list
- 1/2 cup vinegar shopping list
- 1/2 cup sugar shopping list
- 1 cup water shopping list
- 1 small onion, finely sliced, or minced shopping list
- salt, to taste shopping list
- white pepper, to taste shopping list
- 1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped shopping list
- 2 Tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped shopping list
How to make it
- Halve the cucumbers, scoop out the seeds, and thinly slice. Put into a deep sealable bowl.
- In a small sauce pan combine vinegar, sugar, water, onion, salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, stirring till sugar is dissolved.
- Pour over cucumbers. Let cool.
- Stir in dill and parsely, seal, and refrigerate overnight.
- Note: I like to use sliced onion because it looks nicer with the cucumber halves, but some prefer it more finely chopped.
