COOLER THAN A CUCUMBER SALAD
This recipe may be simple but its flavor is big and juicy. I think it would be fabulous alongside spicy Asian curries, quick stir-fries, herb-roasted dinners -- and yes, it would be perfect for picnics. This is a delicious make-ahead picnic salad. Make more than you think you'll need, because you just might want some for breakfast.

COOL AS A CUCUMBER SALAD (GRAND PRIZE WINNER)
This recipe was just printed in our local Coastal Point weekly in the section, "Marie Cooks". This recipe won not only the salads category in an Iowa dairy contest, but also the sweepstakes prize. I'm posting it here for future reference. Use a pretty 1-quart glass dish for molding the salad. When unmolded on a plate, she garnished the top with a ring of thin cucumber slices, filled the center with sliced strawberries, and placed sprigs of parsley around the base. Very attractive! Note: Chill time should be no less than 2 -3hours.

Steps:
- Using a vegetable peeler, peel alternating strips of green skin off the cucumbers. Using a mandoline or the slicing disk of a food processor, thinly slice cucumbers and transfer to a large bowl; add shallots and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together sugar, salt, and vinegar until sugar and salt have completely dissolved. Pour sugar mixture over cucumber mixture and mix, making sure none of the slices stick together. Transfer cucumber mixture and liquid to a nonreactive container and cover tightly. Refrigerate, tossing occasionally, at least 3 hours and up to five days.
