Marinated cucumber salad is as delicious as it is simple.  Thinly sliced cucumber is tossed with red onion and marinated in vinegar, salt and pepper.  You can flavor this salad a hundred different ways.  This recipe leans towards Asian flavors but swap out the rice wine vinegar for red wine vinegar and fresh mint for a Mediterranean salad or add chopped fresh dill for something more Scandanavian flavored.
