HUNGARIAN CUCUMBER SALAD
Hungarian cucumber salad is typically eaten with many heavy, meat-centric meals, and we eat it a little differently than other nations typically do.Usually, instead of eating a salad as an appetizer, we eat this right along side our main meal, alternating bites to get something heavy and something light at the same time.

Steps:
- Peel the cucumbers and, using a mandolin slicer, slice both cucumbers as thinly as possible into a bowl. Add the salt and mix the cucumbers slices to lightly and evenly coat them with salt. Let sit for 15 minutes to draw out the water from the cucumbers.
- The cucumbers will release about ½+ cup of liquid. Then, take large handfuls of cucumbers and, with your hands clenched, squeeze out as much liquid as you can and place the balls of squeezed cucumbers in a bowl. Discard the liquid.
- In a cup, combine the sugar, the vinegar, and 1 cup of cold water and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add this mixture to the squeezed cucumbers and mix thoroughly. Add the chopped garlic, sprinkle with paprika powder and ground black pepper.
- The vinaigrette is so light and refreshing, that you will be tempted to drink it after you eat the cucumber salad. Enjoy!

Steps:
- 1. Wash the cucumbers well, but do not peel. Using a mandoline, slice the cucumbers very thinly. Place half in a colander, then sprinkle with half the salt. Repeat.
- 2. Use a heavy plate to cover the cucumbers, and add a heavy weight on top. Two large cans of tomatoes do the trick. Put the colander in the sink or over a larger bowl to catch the liquid that will drain. Let sit for an hour.
- 3. After resting, use your hands to squeeze as much liquid from the cucumbers, handful by handful. Put them back in the colander and rinse thoroughly. Return them to the colander and weight them down again for 10-15 minutes. Do not squeeze any more liquid from the cukes.
- 4. Finely mince the garlic, and the dill (if using). Place the cucumbers in a large bowl, along with the garlic, dill (if using), sour cream, and vinegar. Mix thoroughly to coat.
- 5. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. To serve, sprinkle the paprika over half the cucumbers. Sprinkle freshly grated black pepper over the other half. Serve.
HUNGARIAN CUCUMBER SALAD
Great salad to make when you have a ton of cucumbers coming out of the garden. We make this year round but we are real cuke lovers in this family. Let it sit for a few days in the fridge and it's even better! Great make-ahead dish for BBQs and parties.
