Directions:
Slice cucumbers VERY THIN (Gabe uses a mandoline)

After each cucumber is sliced, place in a large bowl and add a moderate amount of salt. Repeat with the other two cucumbers. Mix together, set aside for 3-4 hours. (can be refrigerated)

Using your hands, squeeze the cucumbers by the handful to remove as much liquid as possible. Place in colander. When finished, put into bowl and, if you like things spicy add a teeny bit of hot paprika.

Make a dressing of 6 tbsp. white balsamic vinegar, 3 tbsp. water. Taste to see if you need to add sugar according to your own taste. It shouldn't be sweet or sour, but in between. Pour over cucumbers and toss well.
