Categories     Salad     Garlic     Cucumber     Dill     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large seedless cucumbers (about 2 pounds)
1 tablespoon salt
1/3 cup white-wine vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 teaspoons sugar
1 garlic clove, forced through a garlic press
1 teaspoon dill seed

Steps:

  • Score cucumbers lengthwise with a fork and slice thin, preferably with slicing disk of a food processor. In a large bowl toss cucumbers with salt and let stand 1 hour.
  • In a small saucepan bring vinegar and water to a boil with sugar, garlic, and dill seed, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and let dressing cool.
  • In a colander drain cucumbers and rinse under cold water. Drain cucumbers well, squeezing out excess liquid. In a bowl combine cucumbers with dressing and marinate, covered and chilled, at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours. (After about 2 hours cucumber skin will discolor, but there will be no effect on flavor.)

I'm not a big fan of vinegar, so I used lemon juice instead. It was still very good.

I'm allergic to dill, so I used parsley instead. It was still very good.

I used a mandoline to slice my cucumbers and it made the salad look so elegant.

This Viennese cucumber salad was a hit at my last party! The combination of cucumbers, onions, and vinegar is so refreshing and flavorful, and the addition of capers and dill gives it a nice tang. I will definitely be making this again.
