MANY years ago, I found a recipe for 'Danish/' or somesuch cukes,

[elleng]

have misplaced it but have been gifted 3 homegrown cukes by my neighbor, so thinking of duplicating the recipe, as I used and enjoyed it a lot. Here's something close:

DANISH PICKLED CUCUMBERS

1. When I Empty A Jar Of Gerkins Or B & B Pickles

I keep the juice, peel and slice cucumbers, put them in juice and leave them for a week. Delicious.

2. Good idea, but I don't have any such jars!

Now I have to find one from somewhere to use.

5. Future?

3. If I may ... a dusting of lightly toasted sesame seeds on top ... at serving ...

Would make this cuke salad recipe especially good, IMHO ...

4. This recipe (or a variation) is in constant use in our home during cucumber season.

Here is another one we like, esp. since my brother has been growing those long, tender Japanese cucumbers. I usually either add dill weed or crushed caraway seeds. (my favorite is caraway)

7. When I was growing up in the Midwest,

A cucumber salad much like that was often served, but with thinly sliced onion added to the marinade.

Really loved that stuff.
