Cucumber Salad

 2 English cucumbers or 4 regular cucumbers, (sliced very thin with a knife)

1 tsp salt

1 cup white vinegar

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup sugar

1 red onion, sliced

2 Tbsp fresh dill

 

Place sliced cucumbers and salt in a large bowl and stir. Leave for 1 hour so the salt can sweat the water from the cucumbers.  After an hour discard any water.

In a small saucepan add vinegar, water and sugar.  When sugar is fully dissolved turn off heat and set aside.

Add red onions and dill to the cucumbers.  Pour the vinegar mixture over the cucumbers.  Refrigerate for 2 hours.
