It used to be a tradition among many German farm families in the Midwest to always have a bowl of these vinegary cucumbers in the refrigerator. They're the easiest relish of all, as they require no cooking, and they're a refreshing salad alongside any meal.
Ingredients:
4 cups water
1 cup thinly sliced shallots
1 cup white wine vinegar
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
6 cups thinly sliced peeled cucumber (about 3 large)
Directions:
1. Combine water, shallots, vinegar, sugar, dill, salt, and pepper in a large glass bowl, stirring until sugar dissolves. Stir in cucumber. Cover and refrigerate at least 24 hours. Serve with a slotted spoon.
2. Note: Refrigerate Spicy Cucumber Relish in airtight containers up to one week.
