My grandmother would make these wonderful “creamed” cucumbers during the hot summer months…and they were always cool and refreshing. Her recipe called for a lot of refined sugar, so I’ve taken it and updated it in CGW (Cooking God’s Way) style. It’s still absolutely yummy and refreshing on a hot day, but uses natural sweeteners and less sweetener over-all. So it is definitely a healthier version with a slightly sweet, still tangy and refreshingly cool taste.
Asian-Style Cucumber & Radish Salad

This cool, refreshing salad has a nice clean taste that goes well with any Asian-style meal, such as Asian Sesame Glazed Salmon. Slicing the vegetables is quick and easy with a mandolin slicer…they should be smaller than 1/8″ thick. You can slice them by hand if needed as well, just try to get them as evenly thin as possible. No worries, the salad will taste great no matter what
