3 medium cucumbers, sliced
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup white vinegar
3 tablespoons minced fresh dill or parsley
Directions:
Thinly slice the cucumbers, keeping each piece even—between 1/8 and 1/16 of an inch. This a perfect application for a mandolin if you own one. Place the sliced cucumber into a 1-1/2 or 2-qt glass bowl.
Pour the sugar and white vinegar into a Mason jar with a tight-fitting lid. Chop the fresh dill and add it to the jar. Vigorously shake the jar until the sugar has dissolved and the ingredients are completely combined. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and give them a quick stir to ensure they are completely coated. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight. Serve the fresh cucumber salad with a slotted spoon.
