Gurkensalat is a traditional German salad that I have loved since I was a child. This recipe is quick, easy, and delicious. I like to use unpeeled cucumbers for more texture and flavor, but you can peel them if desired. For maximum flavor, be sure to marinate for at least three hours if you can't do the full eight.
