Nanas Cucumber Salad Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Peel the cucumbers and onion. Slice both very thin. I use a food processor.
• 2. Blend together the mayo & vinegar. Add salt & pepper to taste. Add sugar to cut the tartness if you would like it a little sweeter.
• 3. In a large bowl combine everything together. I like to make this a day early so that the cucumbers soak in the flavor of the sauce.
• 4. Enjoy!

Steps:

• 1. Cut ends from cucumbers (my nana always said to cut ends off prior to peeling because it keeps the bitterness to a minimum)
• 2. Remove skin from cucumbers.
• 3. Slice cucumbers into thin slices as shone. Then slice onions into thin rings on seperate plate.
• 4. Put thinly sliced cucumbers into a large bowl
• 5. Salt down cucumbers (you have to use alot of salt, you should be able to see it on them)
• 6. Add onions to cukes and salt again. Cover with an inverted plate and allow to sit in salt for 2 hours at room temp.
• 7. Drain cukes in colander and rinse well to remove salt.
• 8. Measure out 1 c warm water into measuring cup
• 9. Now add white vinegar to make 2 cup liquid
• 10. then add sugar until liquid rises just below the 3 cup mark. (I know its alot of sugar but this combo is what gives the cukes their amazing and unique taste) Stir vigorously until sugar is completely dissolved.
• 11. Put cukes and onions back in bowl and pour vinegar and sugar mix over the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
• 12. Remove from frig and drain in colander. Allow liquid to drain out but do NOT rinse!!
• 13. Return cukes to bowl and stir in sour cream 1 tablespoon at a time. (You will not need much) They should appear as shown.
• 14. This is an amazingly refreshing crisp salad with a very unique tartly sweet flavor. I have never had a single person not go back for seconds.

Steps:
