Categories     Vegetable

Time 5m

Yield 1 batch

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs cucumbers
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
1 -2 medium red onion
to taste currants (optional)
to taste garlic powder
to taste red pepper flakes or to taste white wine vinegar
to taste water
1 cup tomatoes, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Thin-slice the cucumbers and onions and put them in a container.
  • Rip or chop the basil and toss it in.
  • Pour in vinegar and water.
  • I use less vinegar than water, but you want the vinegar a little strong so it will get into the cucumber.
  • Sprinkle in some garlic, maybe 1/2 teaspoon? Let this marinate for at least 2 hours.
  • It keeps well in the refrigerator for days.
  • Add the tomatoes at the last minute.
