(Agurkesalat)
1 cucumber
3 teasp. salt
2 tablesp. vinegar
2 tablesp. water
1 tablesp. sugar
Pinch of pepper
Wash and slice the cucumber finely.
Sprinkle with salt and press between two plates for about 10 min.
Thereafter squeeze out the surplus liquid and place in a marinade previously prepared by boiling the vinegar, water, sugar and pepper together and allowing to cool.
Leave in a cold place for about two hours before serving.
If, instead of vinegar, lemon juice is preferred, do not boil the marinade but stir in the sugar until dissolved.
