Spoon Mage™ Note:
The water smooths out the flavors of the dressing, making it more palatable to those that do not care for vinegar.
Adjust the sugar to suit you. It should be just slightly sweet. Start with 1 teaspoon and very slowly increase it if your family likes a sweet dressing.
Directions:
You can eat the skin of English Cucumbers or peel them as you prefer.
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl.
Toss, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
Drain excess dressing before serving.
