VINEGAR CUCUMBER SALAD
MOM'S RECIPE
My Mom would slice up some cukes, put them in a bowl and add some cold vinegar on top (Mom always kept her vinegar cold) and then she sprinkled it all with a bit of salt. She always kept those vinegar cucumbers on the kitchen counter while making supper.
My whole family would be a walking parade in and out of the kitchen to come get more cucumbers to eat. And my Mom got to make dinner in relative peace since we were temporarily satisfied. It's simple. It's delicious. It's a favorite!
INGREDIENTS:
1 long English cucumber, sliced
⅓ cup sliced onion
½ tablespoon table salt (more or less, to taste)
1 cup vinegar
HOW TO MAKE THIS CLASSIC SOUTHERN STAPLE:
Place sliced cucumber and onion in a medium bowl. 
Season with salt. Then pour vinegar on top.
Put cover or plastic wrap over bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour.
Then dig in!

Hi Paul! Whatever is your preference. I like both of them equally. My Mom traditionally just used the distilled white vinegar. 🙂
