Cucumber Salad

I never would I have guessed that the Mayo Clinic did recipes, but when I did a search for recipes using English cucumbers, this is came up.  It was DELISH.  I will be trying it this week with "regular" cucumbers.

Ingredients

    For the dressing
    • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
    • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    • 1 English cucumber with peel, washed and thinly sliced
    • Cracked black pepper, to taste

Directions

In a small saucepan, add the rosemary, vinegar and olive oil. Heat over very low heat to blend and intensify the flavors, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in the mustard until well blended.
In a serving bowl, add the cucumber slices. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and toss to coat evenly. Add the black pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
