Creamy Dill Cucumbers

This refreshing cucumber dish is best served cold on a hot summer's day. Enjoy!

















Ingredients:

2 large cucumbers
3 tbs Vegenaise
2 tsp white vinegar
1/4 tsp sea salt
Pepper to taste
Finely chopped dill

Directions:

Peel the skin off the cucumbers and cut into very thin slices.

Lay the slices on a paper towel to wick moisture away. Leave the slices in the open air for an hour to dry off. (This is a crucial step. The cucumbers will soak up more of the dressing if they are allowed to dry.)

Put the cucumbers in a bowl and add the salt, Vegenaise, and vinegar.
Mix until dressing is equally distributed.

Finely chop the dill and blend into the salad.
(I use one small sprig of dill but the quantity of dill is up to you.)

Add the pepper last. You only need a very small amount.

You may need to alter the amount of dressing depending on how thin the cucumber slices are and how long they were allowed to dry for.

Refrigerate overnight to ensure that the flavors blend.
