Cucumber ideas

[OakLeaf]

Looking for ideas besides "don't plant so many next year."

I've done gazpacho, sweet and sour salad, chilled cooked cucumber soup, my third batch of lacto fermented pickles is going. Giving them away to friends, neighbors, the allergist's office, the food pantry, and every time I go out to the garden there are more that need picked.

What's your favorite cucumber recipe?

I don't how to make them myself, but a Thai friend makes the most awesome "beef salad" snacks from cucumbers stuffed with thin slices of marinated beef and probably some other stuff, then sliced into slices about an inch thick.

Ignore, I'm clueless :-)

Tzatziki?

I made 7 pints of bread and butter pickles the other day but maybe you don't have pickling cucumbers?
Cucumber dill sauce and put it on salmon?
Cucumber tea sandwiches - cuke, dill, s&p, cream cheese and/or sweet butter on thin bread
chilled cucumber soup

One of my favorite drinks in summer is cucumber water. Peel and slice a cucumber and add them to a pitcher of water. Refrigerate for a few hours and enjoy. (I do the same with lemon slices, and I also chill herb teas, so that I have a rotation of flavors throughout the summer.)

How about juicing them.

I ran across this watermelon, cucumber and lime recipe that sounds yummy. I've juiced watermelon and lime and it was great. I'm sure adding cucumber to the mix would work well too.
