Marinated Cucumbers

By MaryGladys

Ingredients

• 4 cups thinly sliced cucumbers
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced, and separated into rings
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup vinegar, plain or flavored
• 1 tsp celery seed
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder (or 1 tbspn chopped fresh garlic)
• 1/2 tsp salt

Preparation

Step 1

If the cucumbers are waxed, peel them before slicing. If they are not waxed and are chemical-free, leave the skin on. With a fork, score the sides of each cucumber, creating a ruffled edge. Slice thinly.

Layer the sliced cucumbers and onion in a large bowl. Combine the remaining ingredients and blend thoroughly. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers. Cover and chill at least 2 hours. Use a slotted spoon to serve.
