Doc’s Marinated Cucumber Salad Recipe

Ingredients:

• 5 medium cucumbers, peeled
• 1 large Vidalia onion
• 2 Tbsp minced garlic
• ½ tsp Morton^TMLite Salt
• ½ tsp pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 16 oz bottle of apple cider vinegar

Cooking Directions:

• Slice the cucumbers into 1/8 inch-thick disks.
• Slice the onion into rings as thinly as possible, then cut the rings crossways in half to make crescents.
• Transfer to a frozen large glass mixing bowl.
• Add the garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil.
• Add as much vinegar as necessary to almost cover the cucumbers. (Note: This will be quite tart; if you prefer a milder taste, you may wish to dilute the vinegar by half with water before adding to the mixture. However, this will make the cucumbers less crisp.)
• Mix and adjust salt and pepper to taste.
• Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

This is a convenient dish to keep in the refrigerator. It keeps for days and I replenish it with cucumbers and onions using the same marinade. I find marinated cucumber salad prepared this way very satisfying for those late-night munchies. The vinegar may make you cough a bit but the taste is worth it!

This is a free selection.

Enjoy!
