--------  ------------  --------------------------------
                       -----VEGETABLE-----
  4       lg           Unwaxed cucumbers

                       -----DRESSING-----
    2/3   c            Sour cream or yogurt

 Rinse the cucumbers, but do not peel them; cut off the ends.  Using the
 tines of a fork, score the peel lengthwise.  Slice into rounds, as thin as
 you can.  Sprinkle with the tablespoon of salt and toss in a colander. Let
 the cucumbers stand and drain at room temperature for one hour.  Rise well
 to remove the salt.  Squeeze the cucumber slices dry in a clean tea towel.
 (They will be almost transparent)

 Combine the remaining ingredients and fold into the cucumbers.  Chill well
 before serving.  Garnish with a sprig of dill.
