SWEDISH PICKLED CUCUMBER SALAD (INLAGD GURKA)



Swedish Pickled Cucumber Salad (Inlagd Gurka) image

I can't think of a family event where these haven't appeared on the table. My Swedish grandmother made these for her family and the tradition continues - it was originally made with without dill - as it's written here - but feel free to add fresh dill - it's yummy both ways!
