My mom used to cut fresh cucumbers right out of the garden...so fresh you could feel the sun's heat still on them! Hmmm Hmmm Good! She would pour thick fresh cream over them. Mixed with fresh pepper, a wee bit of salt and sometimes a bit of dill, it was a staple on the dinner table all summer long! Just making it again today brought me back to simpler times. If you are not able to get to that fresh cream, use sweet cream mixed with a light mayonnaise or yogurt for the same creamy effect.
