Marinated Cucumbers

Absolutely the PERFECT snack/side dish.  The original recipe is listed below.  I didn't have all the ingredients needed so improvised.


I used:

1 English Cucumber
1/2 cup White Balsamic Vinegar 
1 TBSP minced garlic
Peppercorn Spice
2 TBSP chopped up mint
Salt

We sliced the cucumbers and layered in a colander as directed, salting each layer, and let sit for about an hour.  I forgot to pat the cucumber dry, and threw them right into a container with all the other ingredients.  Put a lid on the container, shook it well, and served.

Crunchy/Salty/Flavorful.

Other than the bummer of having to wait for them to sit for an hour, I give this one 4 1/2 stars.
I will DEFINITELY be making them again.
