Steps:
- Wash and slice the cucumber as thinly as you can or use a mandolin
- Put the cucumber slices in a colander and sprinkle with salt and place a plate with something heavy on it to press the cucumbers. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
- While the cucumbers are sitting you can whip up the pickling sauce.
- In a sauce pan put all the remaining ingredients except the parsley into the pan and warm up until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from stove and stir in the parsley.
- Squeeze or press out any excess liquid from the cucumbers and put the cucumbers in a shallow dish or jar.
- Pour over the pickling sauce and put in refrigerator for at least one hour before serving
- These will last several days in an airtight container in the fridge.

PRESSED CUCUMBER SALAD (PRESSGURKA)
Posting for ZWT6 for the Scandinavia region. This was found online for Swedish recipes. Sounds like a great refreshing salad to add to any dinner. Update: 7/21/2011, I made this to go along with dinner the other night. I added some slices of tomato and onion. Due to the fact that I like things tart, I decreased the sugar and a little on the salt, but did also add some garlic salt. I feel this is good recipe for those who like it not so tart, especially kids, but feel free to add other veggies and spices!!

SWEDISH CUCUMBER SALAD - PRESSGURKA
This cucumber salad goes well with just any kind of meal. In Sweden, strong white distilled vinegar is usually used (12%), which gives the cucumber salad the correct sweet-and-sour flavour and a wonderful fresh and refreshing taste.

SWEDISH PICKLED CUCUMBER SALAD (INLAGD GURKA)
I can't think of a family event where these haven't appeared on the table. My Swedish grandmother made these for her family and the tradition continues - it was originally made with without dill - as it's written here - but feel free to add fresh dill - it's yummy both ways!
