How you gonna leave us hangin and not post the recipe for the cucumber onion salad
Nothing fancy, great fresh ingredients. Farmers market cucumber, Vidalia onions if you can, otherwise the sweetest available. Good but not great balsamic, olive oil, roast and fresh garlic, celery salt, ground black pepper, cayenne and or hot sauce, oregano.
My OCD cucumber prep. Peeled, deseeded, and sliced, they end up crescent shaped. Salt them and set then aside to draw out the water, rinse them off and pat dry before adding them, if you skip this the salad gets watered down.
Make it at least a day in advance, try not to eat it right away, taste it for seasoning, then stick it in the fridge.
The reason I deseed the cucumbers is cucumber seeds don't taste good and have the texture of snot, same thing with tomato seeds. These two substances bring nothing to the party, flavor, no, texture, no, stay the **** out of my food.
