1-2 cucumbers
Plain yogurt, preferably a Greek variety such as Fage
Sea salt
Handful of chopped scallions and fresh herbs
Instructions: Buy (or pick!) the longest, skinniest cucumber you can find. Pare it in alternating strips, so that narrow green stripes of skin remain. Slice thinly and place in a broad, shallow bowl with a little lightly salted cold water and a few ice cubes. Allow it to sit 20 or 30 minutes while you chop scallion tops and fresh herbs (mint and/or dill are particularly good). Drain cucumbers; toss with herbs and yogurt to taste.
Note: You can make this salad in a more Scandinavian style with sour cream, in which case I like to add a few drops of good white wine vinegar and a little sea salt to bring up the flavors.
