Grandma Vargas Hungarian Cucumber Salad

Features:
    Cuisine:

      BEST SALAD EVER! Slight difference with my mom's recipe (both my parents from Hungary as well). No dill, I think that is a preference for those who have grown up with it. Cucumber, salt, sugar, vinegar and a lil water. YES you MUST add a bit of sugar to offset the vinegar. We sprinkle the paper thin cucumber slices with salt, sugar & some vinegar and let set for an hour or so. Then gently squeeze out the extra "water". Then we proceed to make the "dressing". You can utilize as many cucumbers you want, depending on how much you want to serve. As my mother has made this since was 5 yrs old (not kidding), she does everything my sight...Not one measuring spoon or cup around.
