Cucumber With Goat Cheese Directions
This ultra-simple entree depends absolutely on the quality of its
ingredients. The cucumbers must be at their peak, the goat cheese
the best you can buy and the oil hazelnut if possible but, in any
case, a well-flavoured nut oil. As hazelnut oil can be difficult to
find, you could substitute a walnut or macadamia nut oil.
Score 750 g of cucumbers lengthwise with the tines of a fork or peel
them if you prefer. Slice paper thin, put in a colander, sprinkle
with salt and let them degorge for half an hour.
Turn out of the colander, rinse and dry with paper towels. In a bowl
toss the slices with 50 mL lemon juice, then arrange them on six
plates. Dust with white pepper.
Cut about 100 to 120 g firm goat cheese into thin slices and arrange
two or three on each plate. Sprinkle 50 mL of hazelnut oil over the
six servings.
Makes 6 servings.

Food Quotes:
There is one thing more exasperating than a wife who can cook and won't, and that's a wife who can't cook and will.
Robert Frost
"Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are bought and sold by those who have the money to buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it should be available."
Pearl Buck (1892-1973) American Nobel Prize winning author.
The second day of a diet is always easier than the first. By the second day you're off it.
Jackie Gleason
Age does not diminish the extreme disappointment of having a scoop of ice cream fall from the cone.
