SIMPLE CUCUMBERS AND ONIONS



Simple Cucumbers and Onions image

My mom always had a bowl of this in the fridge during the summer, and now I do too! My mom sliced her cucumbers and onions in cold salt water for a few hours first, but I usually do not. I do not notice difference when they are not soaked. Instead of peeling the cucumbers completely, I leave a few stripes of green to add color to the salad. Note: Cooking time includes time to chill salad before serving.

Time 2h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 -3 medium cucumbers, sliced very thin
1 medium onion, cut in half and thinly sliced
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup vinegar
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Combine oil, vinegar, and sugar in a medium to large bowl (big enough to hold all completed salad). Stir until sugar is dissolved (Note: You can heat the dressing to help keep it from separating. It is not necessary, but I do if I have time. If you heat the dressing, be sure to cool it before adding to cucumbers).
  • Add cucumbers and onions to dressing. Toss to coat veggies.
  • Cover and chill at least 2 hours before serving. The longer it chills, the better it gets!

CUCUMBERS & ONIONS IN VINEGAR



Cucumbers & Onions in Vinegar image

This super-quick side dish is found on many supper tables in my beloved West Virginia throughout the summer and it will taste a little different on each one based on how "Grandma did it." We all know that Grandma was ALWAYS the best cook, therefore HER way is always right. Yes, you can make it anytime these days, but those...

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

some cucumbers, sliced
some onion, sliced into thin rings
some apple cider vinegar
some water
some white sugar or sweetener, optional
some salt & pepper
OPTION:
some white vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • 1. Yes, the amounts are vague because it just depends on how much you want to make. You will want to taste along the way until you find the exact "taste" your family will enjoy. This is how I do it.
  • 2. Slice cucumbers and onion in a bowl. For 4 people, I would use 1-2 cucumbers and maybe 1/4 of a medium onion. For my family, I cut the onion rings into half.
  • 3. Pour apple cider vinegar over the cucumbers and onions. I use about 1/3 cup to start.
  • 4. Then I add a splash of water, about 1/6 of a cup, or half of the amount of vinegar.
  • 5. This next step is totally CONTROVERSIAL in West Virginia, so I hesitate to start another Civil War and divide the state, but I sprinkle in a little sugar, maybe a Tablespoon.
  • 6. Stir together and add salt & pepper, to taste. You can serve it immediately or cover the bowl and let it "set" in the refrigerator for a half hour or so. Mom always made it first, then fixed dinner while the cucumbers soaked up the deliciousness in the fridge. Serve with every summer dinner and make more wonderful food memories with your family. =^..^=
