slice up a bunch of fairly thin coins of cukes place in a bowl and cover
with vinegar and a little sugar and maybe a pinch of crushed red
peppers...Put it on the dinner table as a dinner condiment...slices of
onion and/or diakon can go in the bowl too. Adjust the bite of the vinegar
with some water to suit your taste.
