I have a blog too in a totally unrelated field (Online Stock Trading) but I like to check in here on a regular basis, just to see what's going on and it's always interesting to say the least. It's always entertaining what people have to say. Hey, I really enjoy your blog.

This is a stable at my house.

Putting salt on cucumbers will naturally draw out the liquid--so instead of getting the watery salad, you can remove the excess liquid by squeezing the cucumbers or by weighing them down (with another bowl or something heavy). Once some of the liquid comes out, so does some of the salt. Hi Ashley,

Also when you squeeze the cucumbers to remove the extra liquid a lot of that salt is dripping right off again. 1 T of salt for 8 servings is not much at all.

Anyone made it without the salt or with less? The recipe seems high in sodium for those watching their salt intake. Anyone made it without the salt or with less?
