24. I don't like cucumber salad that much, only it it is made with rice

vinegar, sind of sweet, kind of sour. The rice vinegar makes the cucumber salad.

Scallops? Hmmm....

[MissHoneychurch]

14. Ment scallions

[redqueen]

17. Aha!

That sounds more like it. :)

Still! I'd try it with fish of whatever kind...

4. I forced down half a slice in a salad I bought for lunch

I really, really don't like cucumber. But supposedly it's good for you.

[redqueen]

9. My sis is the same way.

CRAZY, the both of yas.

What's your favorite veggie? Not that the cuke is mine, but... just asking. I'm curious like a cat. I have a couple of friends that call me whiskers.

[DS1]

13. I like bamboo shoots, garlic, cayenne, and whatever makes 'water chestnuts'

[redqueen]

16. Water chestnuts are weird.

They stay crunchy when no other veggie will. It's unnatural.

[applegrove]

18. That sounds good.

[BarenakedLady]

6. I just made some yesterday

and finished it off today.

:9

[redqueen]

10. I ate the first half for lunch...

the other half is still in the fridge... so yay! More cuke salad!

[GenDem]

7. Yummy

Sliced cucumbers, EVOO, balsamic vinegar, a little sugar, a couple of spoonfuls of sour cream.

Love it!

[redqueen]

12. Hmmm... sour cream you say?

I might try that with the second half... sounds interesting.

[GenDem]

15. Yeah

I made it up, and it was delish. I picked some beautiful cukes out of my garden last week and wanted to try something a little different. Oh, I forgot -- a little dill weed, too.

[texas1928]

20. Gag me with a spoon.

[bigwillq]

31. Love it!

I love it with tomato too and a red-wine vinaigrette!

[Wapsie B]

33. A resounding Yes!

I made it one way this weekend with diced onions, tomatoes, mayo, and sliced cucumbers which was good. I need to get a veggie slicer so I can slice the cucumbers paper thin and put vinegar, sugar, and onions all together. Let that sit overnight in the fridge and mmmmmmmmm!
