I didn't like the way the dressing thinned out from the liquid from the cucumber. I would sprinkle the cucumber slices with salt and let them sit on a paper towel for a little while to draw out the extra moisture. Then finish the recipe adding a little extra salt if needed. I also finished it off with some white pepper.
THIS IS PERFECT!!!! OMG so glad I used this recipe! Only thing I changed was I added a little more vinegar. LOVED IT!!!! Thank you for posting this recipe! I saved it for future reference!!!!!!!
A lot of you have commented about this recipe being too runny, but that's just how my grandmother made it and we used a slotted spoon when serving. However, if you would like the mixture to be thicker just blot the moisture out of the cucumbers using a paper towel before mixing them into the sauce.
Thanks to all of you who posted positive reviews. I am glad all of you are enjoying this recipe as much as my family has over the last 100 years.
Very refreshing. I did add some onions to the cucumbers.
This is my favourite dressing for cucumber salad! One thing I love is that you don't really need to measure anything just put it all together until it tastes how you like it! I always add pepper and dill to it as well!
I love this stuff. My mom made me a jar of it last summer and now it is a staple in my fridge anytime I get cukes! It is a thin dressing, but I shake before pouring. I love it alone or over a green salad. Also I dice my cukes into small pieces. Yummy!! So glad I found the recipe again!!
Very good! I added onions too because that's the way I'm used to having them. The dressing was just right.
I liked it I found it way too sweet so I added lots of garlic powder Basil Mrs. Dash. Next time I will use half the sugar asked for but other than that it was great love the idea I can make it instead of buying tyvm.
I make mine just like this but add a tsp or two of dill weed.
