    Great! The dressing was almost sweet-sour and totally delicious with the cucumber and sweet onion I used. In fact, it should rate 5 stars, but after 2 hours' chilling the cucumber was shedding liquid and thinning the salad dressing. A keeper — all I'd tweak next time is to salt the cucumbers beforehand to draw out some liquid. The taste was perfect. And may I suggest, this salad is perfect with spicy meat — I happened to make a Moroccan-type meatball from a Zaar recipe, and it complemented each other perfectly. It would be perfect with a curry as well. Thanks, Parsley, this a great way to use this salad veggie! I used my food processor to slice the cucumber as thinly as possible. And I forgot to say: as I was using lemon juice in my main dish, I had enough left over, so I used lemon juice in the dressing instead of vinegar.

    I love these cucumber salads, any which way ! Made this exactly as posted, just added a pint of cut up grape tomatoes to the mix. Didn't have any to take home after the family get together ! Thanks Parsley.
