PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH CUCUMBERS
My mom's side of the family was German and Irish. Settling in Pennsylvania, they adopted some of the cooking and customs of the Pennsylvania Dutch. This is a dish Mom loved, and today it's my favorite garden salad. It tastes delicious alongside a plate of homegrown tomatoes. -Shirley Joan Helfenbein, Lapeer, Michigan
