Thinly sliced cucumbers that have been salted and drained for bit, 1/4 cup champagne vinegar, some chopped dill and a spoonful of sugar. I found the recipe in Vegetable Harvest by Patricia Wells. We enjoyed it along side some grilled hamburgers. They were made the usual way with some horseradish and chives mixed in. Smokey hamburgers cooked just right and slightly sweet and salty cucumbers — what a great combo. In the past I haven’t been a big fan of cucumbers, but I think those days are over now.
