Cool Cucumber Salad

Ingredients
This mild pickle-like salad is a simple way to prepare cucumbers and is my children’s favorite. The cucumbers give off liquid as soon as salt is added, but this adds to the refreshing coolness of this salad. Serve it cold.

4 cucumbers, peeled
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions
Slice the cucumbers very thin on the slicing side of a grater into a bowl. Stir in the vinegar, oil and salt and pepper to taste and toss well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Serves 4 to 6
