Cucumber Slices with Dill

I make this with cucumbers and sliced tomatoes straight from the farmers market. Sometimes I add basil instead of dill.

Adapted from Cooking with Herbs and Spices by Craig Claiborne

2 large cucumbers
4 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon fresh snipped dill

Wash cucumbers. Peel or score lengthwise with fork. Slice very thin. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over cucumbers. Refrigerate at least one hour.
