Ingredients
· 4 large cucumbers
· about 1 pound of feta cheese
· half of a medium-sized sweet onion, like a candy onion or a Vidalia
· 1/3 C white balsamic vinegar
· 1/3 C olive oil
· spices: about 1 teaspoon each of dried oregano and basil flakes rubbed
to fine, and a sprinkle of powdered rosemary, thyme, and black pepper to taste
Directions
1. Rinse, then immerse the block of feta in fresh, cold water and refrigerate
overnight. This prevents it from being too salty.
2. Finely chop or mince the sweet onion.
3. Put oil, vinegar, and spices into a 2.5 quart glass bowl. Add onion; mix.
4. Peel cucumbers; quarter them lengthwise and remove/discard seeds. Cut them
into chunks.
5. Add cucumber chunks into oil/vinegar/spice dressing, and mix thoroughly.
6. Cube feta into small chunks and add to cucumber/onion/dressing mixture, turn
lightly to combine, taking care not to damage the feta. Refrigerate a few hours
to overnight, mixing a few times to distribute dressing.
