  1. Fresh tasting and slight sweet. I let it marinate overnight. A nice change from my usual cucumber salad (white vinegar + water + salt + pepper).
     
  2. This was excellent -it doesn't get any faster and easier than this; the combination of honey and apple cider vinegar turned out to be a great combination. I didn't make any changes and I am very happy with the flavor. Not sure if I will even bother to leave it in the refrigerator for an hour, it tastes fine as it is right now!
     
  3. 0.1g fat is light in anyone’s reckoning! This was SO quick to prepare and it is a delicious – and very different – way to serve cucumbers. I’ll be making them like this again. I didn’t have any cider vinegar, so I made this with red wine vinegar and – influenced by the name – I added a generous sprinkling of sweet paprika and a few grindings of black pepper. I allowed an overnight mingling of flavours before serving this to friends for lunch today. Everyone loved it. The cucumbers released a lot of liquid overnight, and I’m going to add that to some stock I’m making tomorrow! Thanks, Bergy, for sharing this little gem of a recipe.
     
  4. This was a refreshing change from the normal dill cucumber salads. It is a delicate taste that still allows the taste of the actual cucumbers to be enjoyed rather than masking them in a sauce. They were really easy to make too. Made for PAC Spring 2009.
     
  5. We thought it was rather bland; maybe we're conditioned to having cukes with dip too much....

On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine. I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help. My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods. I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England! In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
