cucumber snacks/meals

[jimpen]

Chunked cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions. Salt & pepper. Vinegar and sugar. Sour cream. Mix in a bowl. Store in the fridge for an hour or two. It tastes a little bit better if you let it get a little closer to room temp before serving.

I have never tried the sour cream in that salad. Will have to do a taste test.

The sour cream takes some of the edge off the vinegar/sugar mix without getting it to sweet.

I drain as much of the liquid off before putting it in my plate, so it is't that strong tasting. But we put Jalapeno pepper and onion in with the tomatoes and cucumbers, and that gives it a little kick. We have been eating peas out of the garden just about every meal. I will dribble some of the vinegar/sugar mix on my peas, and it is real good. Kind of like hot sauce without the heat.

You need to try some of General Lee's Burpless cukes.

I second the sour cream, vinegar and sugar w/salt and course black pepper...mix in a bowel with peeled sliced cukes and white (vidalia) onion slices...must be chilled for the best taste...
Also great on fresh lettuce...

I love them raw with salt and pepper. For the big ones that got away from us, I peel them, slice them in half, scoop out the seeds, and grate them, squeeze out the juice, and mix with sour cream. Goes good with Pad Thai or Indian food on pita bread as a dip.

Whats the vinegar, sugar and sour cream ratio?

proportion to make a creamy smooth dressing (sour cream/vinegar) add sugar/seasonings to taste...

some like it a little more tart than sweet...
