| Notes: |
2015-02-09: We modified this to become Chilled Cucumber Sauce, which was served over
Baked Salmon Squares.
2012-12-19: with only 1 cucumber, I halved the recipe with the exception of the eggs. It is chunky and probably needed to be boat-motored; pretty bad!
2012-12-17: Added to our Cookbook.
