2.00 tablespoons white vinegar
3.00 tablespoons minced fresh dill or 2-3 teaspoons dried

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. Rinse 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.
