Ingredients

  • 6 large cucumbers, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 sweet onion, chopped

Method

  • Place cucumbers into a large bowl with a lid, mix in 1 tablespoon salt, and cover. Refrigerate to let salt draw out excess moisture, 2 to 3 hours. Drain liquid and squeeze as much moisture as possible out of cucumbers; transfer to a large salad bowl.
  • Mix cider vinegar, evaporated milk, vegetable oil, 2 teaspoons salt, and black pepper in a jar, shaking it to thoroughly combine. Pour dressing over cucumbers and stir in onion. Refrigerate at least 4 hours (overnight for better flavor).
