 Peel cucumbers, slice very thin. Place in a deep bowl and salt. Cover with
 a dish and weight down and let stand for 1 hour. Drain off juice and press
 cucumber slices between paper towels to dry as much as possible.

 Mix water, vinegar, sugar and optional fresh chopped dill in a glass or
 plastic bowl. Add cucumbers and onions. Cover and marinate at room
 temperature for 1 hour, then refrigerate for up to 2 to 3 hours. These are
 best served the same day so they retain their crispness.

 Marinade can be adjusted to taste more or less vinegar, water and sugar.
