Steps:
- Peel the cucumber and cut in chunks. If it's got a lot of big seeds, scoop some out and discard. Put it in a food processor and chop fine. If it's really moist, or you didn't seed it, then you may want to squeeze off some of the excess juice.
- Put the onion in the processor and chop. Add the rest of the ingredients. Process, scrape down the sides, and process again until smooth.
- I like it best on soft, white bread. But it's also great on crackers.

MS. JENNY BENEDICT'S FAMOUS CUCUMBER SPREAD
This cucumber finger sandwich filling was created by Jenny Benedict, a popular caterer in Louisville, KY way back when. Now, it is a Kentucky favorite and dang near a recipe you MUST have on the table for a Derby party. This is pretty for St. Patty's Day and is so much better than a plain ole cucumber slice on a piece of bread. Cook time is chill time.
