Sylvia's comments: nice creamy blend of flavors. I only used half the onions called for as I was afraid the onion would overwhelm the other flavors, but I would have liked a little more. It's essential to slice the cucumbers and onions paper-thin; the few slices that slipped through a little thicker didn't blend flavors nearly as well. Also, I think I'll seed the cucumber next time, use half-slices instead of whole slices. The seeds kept getting in the way and fighting the other flavors.
