Whenever we’d eat cauliflower with meatballs, my mom would make these cucumbers in a sweet and sour liquid. I loved eating cucumbers this way, and when the meal was over, I’d often drink the liquid!

Ingredients
Method

My next door neighbor made these every summer. She used very thin sliced cukes (not peeled) 3 tablespoons of sugar and 1 tsp salt and 1/3 cup of white vinegar. I make them myself now and they’re really popular!
