Helping Hands Cucumbers

Recipe #97013 | 15 min | 15 min prep

I love marinated cucumber slices, and while my MIL-to-be was visiting recently, I discovered this recipe in a church cookbook that she brought with her, called "Helping Hands", from the Faith Congregational United Church of Christ in Glen Ellyn, IL. There's a lot of flavor in this salad; sliced onion can be added, but I think it would be a bit much with the other seasonings.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine water, vinegar, sugar and other seasonings (I like to heat it up a bit to dissolve the sugar more quickly).
  2. 2
    Pour over cucumbers and marinate for at least a couple of hours before serving.

These cukes are fabulous...have just finished making my second batch! It is such an easy recipe. I used English cucumbers.....app.1 to 2 regulars. Don't you just love those old church or community cookbooks? Everybody submits their best recipes. This is one of them!

    Very nice salad! I served it with our xmas dinner. I did use only 1/2C of sugar with 1C vinegar & twice as much water, which was plenty sweet enough for us. I also added the onions and a few tomatoes along with fresh ground pepper. I've been making vinegared cucumbers for years - the sugar & seasonings from your recipe were a terrific change. Thank you!

    While looking for a cucumber salad to take camping with us this weekend, I found this one in my cookbook and had to finally comment as I made this all summer long, last year! It is wonderful tasting and I could easily make a meal out of it. I always use splenda and put in onions as I love them. Have also put halved cherry tomatoes in, when there were alot of them to use up. This recipe tastes great!
