| 1 | This cucumber salad is by far one of the most delicious and refreshing salads you can eat. |
| 2 | It has a wonderful cucumber flavor that is enhanced by the garlic and sour cream. |
| 3 | Originally this was a summer salad to accompany roast meat or chicken dishes. |
| 4 | Now that we have cucumbers available all year round we can enjoy this dish all year. |
| 5 | i use a slaw slicer to slice the cucumber thinly enough to see through! as a child i always enjoyed peeling and then grooving the cucumbers with the tines of a fork before my mother would slice them. |
| 6 | I loved the refreshing cool cucumber spray that would mist my face. |
