STUFFED CUCUMBERS

Steps:

• Cut about 2+1/2 inches off each end of cucumber (assuming you are using the Japan or seedless, since they are typically rather long).
• Grate the ends using a hand grater & place into a fine mesh strainer.
• Cut the cucumbers in half, then again lengthwise.
• Scoop out seeds so you have four boats & run the bottom side of boat across a grater. This creates a flat bottom so the boat doesn't rock. Save the shavings & rough chop into the grated cuc ends from above.
• The longer you let the cucumber strain, the drier the stuffing will be, I usually wait about 30 minutes.
• Remove grated cuc from the strainer, add to bowl.
• Add 2oz feta, white pepper and dill weed. Stir gently.
• Chill at least a couple hours but no longer than 12 hours.
• Wipe the boats dry (makes the stuffing easier) and place stuffing inside.
• Garnish: black lava sea salt & dots of sriracha mixed with mayo.
• You can also slice into smaller bite sized "U's" if you refrigerate after stuffing to re-firm the feta/cuc mixture.
• Prep time does not include refrigerator marinade time.

STUFFED CUCUMBER CUPS

Steps:

• Using a zester, vegetable peeler or fork, score the length of each cucumber to create a striped effect.
• Remove the ends and cut each cucumber into 3/4 inch rounds.
• Using a melon baller, scoop out the seeds from the center of each round to form a cup.
• Reserve 1 tbsp of the walnuts as a garnish.
• Combine remaining ingredients and stir until well blended.
• Spoon the mixture into the cucumber cups, garnish with the remaining nuts and chill until serving time.
