There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Ben's Cucumber Salad (I think) - Test 2

0 - I'm not sure but I think this recipe has the ingredients Ben uses to make cucumber salad. I'll have to make it and have him eat it to find out.
1 - Very simple and delicious and refreshing. It would be interesting to try different vinegars.
2 - Still just used apple cider vinegar, but other vinegars would be fun to try.

2 cucumbers (14oz) thinly sliced
½ small onion thinly sliced
2 Tbsps apple cider vinegar (try white wine vinegar)
2 Tbsps mayonnaise
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp white sugar
1 tsp chopped dill
  1. Combine the cucumber and onion in the serving bowl.
  2. In a small bowl whisk together the vinegar, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, sugar and dill.
  3. Pour over the cucumbers and lightly toss before serving.
