Cold Chinese Gingered Cucumber Recipe

Wash and peel cucumbers. Score each cucumber from end to end using the tines of a fork, so that each cucumber has ridges running down it. Slice cucumbers into thin rounds, and place in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt, mix through. Let stand for half an hour. While cucumber is standing, combine vinegar, sugar and green ginger in a cup. Mix well. When cucumber has stood for half an hour, drain excess liquid. Pour vinegar mixture over, stir through. Chill before serving.
