  1. I liked it, but I think the salt is too mutch and the sugar isn't enough. I replaced this two and the final thing was amasing. :)
     
  2. Loved the tartness & nutmeg in this version of cucumber salad. Served with Recipe #170477 for ZWT6.
     
  3. Love cucumber salad and this was a great tangy one!! I reduced to a single serving to go with Recipe #422969 and garlic bread for a great light lunch!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for ZWT6
     
  4. We really liked this cucumber salad. I used cider vinegar. The nutmeg gave it a pleasant taste. Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT 6.
     
  5. This was a delicious salad. It was a bit pickle-like, but I adjusted. I ate it right away. Maybe after a while the flavors will blend and mellow.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I joined Recipezaar to learn new recipes that are home cooked. I grew up having ready-meals like Encor and Stouffers and needed recipes that don't simply require opening a box and plopping in the oven! I enjoy cooking when I have the time to try new dishes. I make every recipe as written if I'm reviewing it to give a true review. If I make alterations that aren't in the directions, I don't feel it's a true reflection of the recipe; it's another recipe to me. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b367/chefpaulag/final-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/captain.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/329769/ninja%20bmp.jpg" width=75%> (Zaar World Tour 4) <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg"> <a href="http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/Missymop/?action=view&current=cunningcrocodiles.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/Missymop/cunningcrocodiles.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <img src="http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/DSC_0020.jpg"> (Australia/New Zealand Swap #15)
