I like a recipe that my Mother used to make. You use cut up onion and cucumbers in a sweet milkylike mix.?

Question

I thought it used vinegar but I am not sure.

Answer 1

My mother use to make it all of the time.
1 cup canned milk
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 teaspoons sugar

Mix everything together and pour over cucumbers.

You can also mix about 1/2 cup of salad dressing in that recipe also.

Answer 2

Cucumber Salad
Original recipe yield: 8 servings.


INGREDIENTS:
cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 small white onion, thinly sliced
1 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon dried dill, or to taste

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIRECTIONS:
Toss together the cucumbers and onion in a large bowl. Combine the vinegar, water and sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, and pour over the cucumber and onions. Stir in dill, cover, and refrigerate until cold. This can also be eaten at room temperature, but be sure to allow the cucumbers to marinate for at least 1 hour.

Answer 4

Hi,

I think I know what you are talking about. My mom made an Armenian cucumber salad/soup which used plain yogut and a little water, cucumbers, onion, garlic salt. This is not sweet though it is one of my families favorite dishes in the summer. Vinagar would probably curdle the yogurt. If you like it sweet, try some honey or sugar.

Answer 5

I make this with a dressing of mayo lemon juice & icing sugar.Adjust the sugar & lemon juice a tsp. at a time for your taste
