Cucumber Salad
Cool, delicious cucumber salad. For a pretty salad, peel only half of each cucumber, leaving strips of skin on each. Don't make the vinegar solution first and then chop the cucumber because it's important that the vinegar solution be hot to ensure proper flavoring.
cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 small white onion, thinly sliced
1 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup white sugar
1 Tbs dried dill, or to taste
Toss together the cucumbers and onion in a large bowl. Combine the vinegar, water and sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, and pour over the cucumber and onions. Stir in dill, cover, and refrigerate until cold. This can also be eaten at room temperature, but be sure to allow the cucumbers to marinate for at least 1 hour.
Servings: 8

I don't know if you're looking for a straight cucumber vinegar salad, but I really like a good Thai cucumber salad, and this is a recipe that I base mine on (I usually use less sugar, more red onion, and more cilantro). Whenever I've made this and taken it to a get-together, it's been a huge hit!
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
1/4 cup water
1 Tbsp Garlic Chili Pepper Sauce
1 tsp salt
1 English cucumber, unpeeled and sliced thinly
1/4 cup diced red onion
Garnish:
3 Tbsp chopped cilantro or mint
3 Tbsp chopped roasted peanuts
Directions:
1 In a small saucepan combine the sugar, vinegar, water, Garlic Chili Pepper Sauce and salt. Stirring, cook over a medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
2 Add cucumbers and onions to a size appropriate dish (one that will allow all the cucumber mixture to be covered with marinade). Pour vinegar mixture over vegetables and let marinate for 30 minutes.
3 Just before serving sprinkle with cilantro and peanuts.
Mix together 1 cup vinegar, 1 cup water, 2 tablespoons of olive or vegetable oil, 2 teaspoons of sugar. Add a little coarse ground black pepper and a shake or two of your favorite garlic salt. Whisk all that together and add cucumbers and sliced onions. Chill in frig for a couple hours.

Sweet Cucumber Salad
3 cucumbers (preferrably the seedless, also known as English Cucumbers)
3 onions
1/4 cup (or more, as needed) sugar
1/2 cup vinegar (add more as needed after testing liquid)
1/4 cup water
few sprigs dill (or 1 TBSP dried dill)
salt & pepper
Slice the cucumbers very thin, and same thing with the onions. Note, you don't need to peel the cucs, but for a pretty presentation, slice downward every other 1/2 inch for a striped effect)
In a bowl, put the remainder of the ingredients. I use a large jar.
Mix well - or shake in the jar until well mixed.
Add the onion slices & cucumber slices.
Let soak in the liquid overnight.
Serve
NOTE; if sealed tightly, this salad will keep in the frig for 3 weeks.
