Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs cucumbers
  • 1/2 cup coarse salt
  • 4 tbsp lime juice
  • 6 tbsp canola oil
  • 1 1/2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 -3 tbsp basil (cut in long, thin strips)

Directions:

  1. Peel and thinly slice cucumbers.
  2. Place in a colander, sprinkle with coarse salt. Drain for one hour.
  3. Mix juice, oil and sugar (Dave use a stick blender, I whisk by hand or shake in a container big enough to then add the cukes).
  4. Layer cucumbers and basil in a sealable container (like the one I shook the dressing in).
  5. Pour lime vinaigrette over the cucumbers.
  6. Chill 2-4 hours, occasionally shaking container to mix juices.
