My grandmother made an amazing cucumber salad. But like many of her amazing dishes, there was no set recipe. It always went a little of this, a little of that...taste taste taste...then something perfect was served. She made a pie crust with vegetable oil that was insanely delicious and I don't know anyone who was able to successfully replicate it. The only real success this year in my mom's vegetable garden has been cucumbers. There have been a few tomatoes and bell peppers, but cucumbers have dominated the show. C and Miss F refuse to try cucumber salad, so I keep it in a dish in the fridge and snack on it at random. Or pull it out as a side for dinner in a single serving bowl. This is the best I have been able to replicate my grandmother's dish, it is especially nice with homegrown cucumbers. |
