| How To Cook: |

1. With a small, sharp knife, peel the cucumbers and slice them lengthwise into halves. Scoop out the seeds by running the tip of a teaspoon down the center of each half.
|
2. Then cut the cucumbers into 2-inch lengths. In a serving bowl, stir the lime juice and salt together until the salt dissolves.
|
3. Drop in the cucumbers and peppers, and turn them about with a spoon. When they are evenly coated with the lime mixture, cover tightly with foil or plastic wrap and marinate at room temperature for at least 8 hours before serving.
