-- cucumbers

Sweet and Sour Dressing:

1 cup rice vinegar

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoon salt

Slice the cucumbers in half, lengthwise. Then run the tines of a fork

seeds, and cut the cucumber halves into 3-inch sections. Cut the

sections, along the length, into almost paper-thin slices. Place in a

bowl.

Add the dressing to the cucumbers. Toss lightly to coat the cucumber

slices. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Serve
