Cucumber salads are cool and refreshing. This Thai cucumber salad is remarkably tasty! The whole basil leaves are so nice in this salad. Cucumber salads do not keep well. They get mushy if refrigerated. So only make enough for a meal. The peanut sauce glazed satay chicken goes well with this salad. Yum! ... Shawna
