Sliced cucumbers dressed with vinegar and sugar from The Gift of Southern Cooking: Recipes and Revelations from Two Great Southern Cooks by Edna Lewis and Scott Peacock

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • TrishaCP on May 25, 2013

    I grew up eating a variation of this during the summer when cucumbers were abundant. My mom always dressed the cucumbers in white vinegar, with sliced sweet onion, and ice cubes and no sugar. This version with sugar and cider vinegar is tasty- but I found the cider vinegar a bit overpowering and would stick to white vinegar next time. I also used less sugar than the recipe instructed and added red onion to the mix since I had extra on hand.
