I’m black and I can’t tell you how many times I ate this exact salad when I still lived down south coming up. We usually ate this salad on Fridays with fried fish & grits.
My grandma made it and I still make it to this day. We are from Texas.
@E, yum! It is SO good with some purple hull peas, butterbeans, fresh skillet corn, fried okra, fresh tomatoes, banana pepper and hot, crispy cornbread and of course iced tea!
Sounds delicious! Where's my invite? 😁
Yum
My momma makes this and adds pasta to it. So yum!
Paula, these intimate videos of you at home with your family and animals are much more enjoyable than the glossy produced television versions. Quarantine has been the great equalizer, and it’s brought us things like this which honestly are so much better. Thanks for the recipe. And thanks for keeping it real. ❤️
Agreed!
I just left that same reply!!! I love this SO much better than the “Polished” network episodes!!! It’s REAL!
Ditto ❤️❤️❤️
@@tammybrecht7192 Agreed!♡
Down home❤😍🤩😀❤😍🤩
Paula, l love watching you cook and be so candid. I feel like I’m in the kitchen with you and Theresa and Michael. Great fun for this old boy! You are the bomb!💥

"They bark if a leaf falls." 🤣🤣
I cracked up when she said that .Partly because it was so dang true!!
I was listening with headphones, scared the snot out of me when they barked! My dog does the same dang thing!
I want some fried okra and tomatoes, with a pan of cornbread❤❤
YESSSS
You and me both, always look forward to the summertime and fresh vegetables for sure, went last Wed. to our Farmer's market but they didn't have much to choose from yet, got some yellow squash and butterbeans, will try again in a couple of weeks. I like the smothered okra and fresh tomatoes with some onion also, Yum, Yum nothing like our fresh summer vegetables!
The dog sitting on the chair.. like he’s one of the humans watching her cook 😂🤣😂
I believe these "quarantine" videos are the best video series you have ever done. Thanks to Teresa, too!
I just love it that she stopped the recipe to talk to Michael when he came home from work. So nice to see such "homey" videos.
I know isn't it?
She’s about as real as they come isn’t she?! I just love me some Paula
Hey Ms Paula. It's so good to see I cooking. I enjoy watching u and listening to I laugh.
Exactly where does Michael work?
Lynn Fendlason yep it’s the best way to present a meaningful conversation while you inform your fans 😍😍it .....
Thank you!! I really enjoy taking a break from work with you every day or so. I watch you while I eat my lunch. This salad is one of my favorites from childhood! I am like Aunt Peggy- I make it with more oil also and just a pinch of sugar! But I salt the sliced cucumbers and leave them in the frig for a while until they weep. Then I drain and rinse them and don’t use any salt in the dressing- only black pepper. I didn’t hear until I was grown that it’s supposed to prevent “gas on the stomach” as my grandmomma used to put it.
When I smell cucumbers or watermelon I am a freckle-faced barefoot kid in summer at my grandparents’ farm. Even though our farm was also a Santa Gertrudis cattle ranch, summer Suppers were often vegan 🌱 and all from the
Garden. My favorite summer supper was corn on the cob, big thick slices of ripe tomato with salt & pepper, butter beans and cucumber salad. Sometimes the cucumber/onion salad is made creamy with yogurt or sour cream. Watermelon or cantaloupe (we raised melons commercially) with salt and pepper and crisp bacon was summer breakfast. We had sandwiches or roast for lunch and then we had to shell purple hulls or some other peas during the heat of the day while grandmomma and I watched Nancy on As the World Turns (She called it As the Dinner Burns) and General Hospital. As soon as afternoon curfew lifted- I flew out the door to roam the farm with the dogs. All these happy thoughts just from your little bowl of salad! Thank you, Paula, from a Texas girl.
Loved your story. Sounds very much like summer days I spent on my grandparents farm. Of course my parents farmed also so your story was my life. Good times.
Love this salad! Don’t see your link to the dressing recipe, though. I have made this salad for years, but have never used garlic in the dressing. Look forward to your videos every morning!! Super fun and such good food!!
Try adding some diced cantaloupe for an added flavor dimension. I think you'll enjoy it.
Would love to have recipe to your dressing again
Paula's Dressing recipe from video: 2 parts olive oil, 1 part white vinegar, small dash of apple cider vinegar pinch of sugar, pinch of salt, pepper, fresh minced elephant garlic
@@mollycatcolorado9252 Thank you!
This reminds me of my Aunt Jenny’s cucumber salad who is currently in a nursing home so I can’t see her right now. Love this dish!
I wash my disposable cups too! They'll eventually get thrown away, but not till they crack!!😂🤣😂
Lawd, my Daddy had a whole system with Red Solo cups for his BATHROOM habits. I still can’t use them.
When your dogs bark, my dogs go beserk! They don't realize your dogs are several states away LOL I've been craving something fresh, simple and good. This salad will hit the spot.
My little female Havanese dog barks exactly the same at every thing...
Aunt Peggy gon' get you for not saving her a taste of that dressing!
She meeds to make more anyway!! Better the next days for vinegar dressing
Hey Paula,
Its no joke having back problems, heat pads and ice packs with anti inflammatory jell or even pills it's about all that helps. Hope aunt Peggy gets to join you soon in your kitchen we would all love to see her up and about free from pain. Elephant garlic is my favourite especially when you add a wee bit of salt and olive oil to the big cloves wrap it in a small piece of tin foil and roast it along with different vegies, makes it sweet and really delicious. OK ya'll have a good day, love from Your fav fan in the UK. ☺
We love aunt Peggy! Thank you Paula for all the recipes you have been sharing! I’m fixin to make your peanut butter pie today for my husband 🥜👌🏼I’m sure it will be out of this world!
Cucumber are so refreshing, this will be my summer salad staples. Thank you.
Radishes would be good just to add a little zip. This is so pretty-Italian flag!
Oooh good idea, I'm gonna try that 🙂
@K, I eat fresh, firm radishes by the bunches!
I love it call "Elephant Garlic", I am a garlic girl, eat raw, toasted, grilled haha. I called a big green onion, "King Green Onion". I love it so much. This is looks so great. I love you Paula!!! I would love to go your kitchen... I will bring King green onion!
Paula you and Micheal are perfect together 💗 I am truly happy for you both. Aunt Peggy’s salad looks perfect
I made this last week with barbecue country-style backbones, navy beans and cornbread. I put about 1/4 cup of sugar in mine, though.
Dream menu 😋😋😋
I hate what that Food Network did to you. But thank God that you made your fortune first. I supported you 100%. And look at what they did to Emeril Lagesse, they used him and dropped him. Unfortunately most big corporations are like that. I remember in like ‘08 you were doing a live show and me and my husband got tickets, it was in Manhattan and we were late to the door by 5 or so minutes and they wouldn’t let us in because they were taping like with guests sitting around tables I forgot the name. Glad to see you have a UA-cam!!
That "Fabio" "Fatio" story was hilarious. "Call you Fatio"? "No call me FABIO". BAHAHAHAHA
Hope aunt Peggy feel better. That salad was so fancy yet simple. I will be making some this evening. .
That salad brings back memories when my Mama used to make it too.....love it! And how about that tongue twister!! "I just shot a short show!"..LOL 😊
Paula can you do a keto recipe book because I know you probably limit carbs being that you’re a diabetic. No one would come out with better recipes. Your food is the best!
As always, a beautiful lady! Enjoying these quarantine visits so much!!! Makes me want to be there in person! Love to y'all!!!
Y'll is spelled thusly
I bet some fresh dill weed would be good in that in addition to parsley.
Nooo. Dill would ruine it.
Now I need elephant garlic.
Also. I save paper towels when I only dry my clean hands in a little basket in the kitchen and use them again for cleaning up dirty things like floor spills and puppy accidents.
@autumnstarrs --- elephant garlic is an onion, it's not actually garlic.
@@itsjoannotjoann5070 Is elephant garlic an onion or garlic?
I do the same thing!
Laura Smith it is actually a garden type leek. Not a garlic at all.
I save "clean" paper towels too!
UA-camr home cook Jan Creson in North Carolina introduced us to Featureman on YT who is an older bachelor and a hoot! I think he cooks with one pan or skillet!!! YT is for everybody.
Good Mornin' Miss Paula! Love and blessings from Philly
My prayers go out to your aunt Peggy hope she recovers soon
I just won’t to come over and hang out with them
I would so live that forsure...we would have a ball with them friend . We would laugh non stop.
deanswife2 -want not won’t 🤦🏽♀️
Me too!
@@tamlynn786 spelling police not needed!!!
Me too!
The sugar makes the difference. Love this dressing. Love watching you more!
Paula, you always make me giggle...and Michael does, too!
When were you perfect? Answer: you were there! Love that!!!😆
Thank you Paula for another great 👍 recipe 😋. We love you. What's tomorrow's delicious 😋 gem? Lots of 💘.
This sounds so amazing...I need to make this. Paula I love you in hats...have a beautiful day to all my friends on here . Love you all❤😘❤ My dogs bark at anything...the older they get it's non stop barking ❤🐶❤🐶. We love all our beautiful babies don't we.
I'm trying to watch this and my dogs are barking nonstop!! I tell everybody they can hear a butterfly 💨 and they'll bark!!😀🐶
I understand that completely..❤🐶❤
Looks delicious! Have a wonderful day sweet lady!
I really love your videos. You have a way of making people feel right at home. Specially those that have been with you from the show. Don’t let them get on you about the foil, I do it too, lol 😆. You got any oven fried chicken recipes?
I, too, am a foil-saver!! 😁
Shalom! This, cucumbers, onions, tomatoes? served with breakfast omelet in the Jewish communities!
I cut up cucumbers add White vinegar Salt & Pepper with Fresh Dill. It Taste Great... Elvie ❤ it.
Ive missed you Paula! You were not treated fairly. You look amazing! Im so glad you’re still bringing us wonderful tips and recipes 😘😘😘😊
My dear husband can eat this salad with every meal, he loves it just that much. I really enjoy it with fried 🍗 and fried 🐟...delicious!!!
I’m ‘frugal’ too! If you’ve been raised to save every scrap, it just sticks with you no matter how much you have in the pantry. So I wash those nice disposable cups, I’ve even been known to throw the heavy duty disposable spoons and forks in the sink with them! lol
Classic recipe!!!! My Italian grandparents made it and so did my Georgia southern grandmother. They both added a spoon of sour cream to make it creamy on special occasions.
My Mom made it 2 with sour cream the German way or sometimes just make a deli plate with avacado
I’m sending Auntie Peggy
I will be 70 in July!!!!! And I can’t stand very long and my knees and back, hurt so bad I have lots of back days
I have “Degeterent Disk desease
I really love u since you were on
TV 📺
Big hugs feel we are blessed to see you
I’m Italian American. This is our staple salad but we add black olives. Also, some bits of fresh mozzarella if we have it. So delicious.
Hey Paula! I would love to see a recipe for bread pudding that you could change flavors like with the gooey cake. Not the Krystal Kreme donuts recipe although I do love that one. Bread pudding is a favorite of mine. Thanks Paula. I love your UA-cam channel!!! Love you too!
What’s the flavor difference between elephant garlic and “regular” garlic?
Elephant isn't as strong
Mina R milder taste, larger bulbs
Looks so pretty..thank you and best to Aunt Peggy..I had back surgery many years ago and still my back will go out on occasion...so painful. I use Aleve and take it easy🤞❤️
Ok i want a Paula Deen "YAWL!" for my ringtone 😍 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
You need to meet up with Tammy from Collard Valley Cooks via skype, ya'll can do a live show, would be a blast, she's a fabulous GA Cook
My children helped me make this and we all loved it! We love watching you- it's the highlight of our day :)
Looks delicious. I always add celery and bell pepper chunks. Those additional items still make it just as good after few days in refrigerator which will happen if only preparing for one or two. Not that it isn’t delicious and will be eaten fast if enough people. Just that these cucumbers in stores are bigger than needed for one or two servings! Safe salad to enjoy and avoid all the contaminated lettuce problems.
Gosh Ms. Paula Dean I have missed you, so glad you’re on UA-cam, love you forever ♥️
Hi Paula from San Jose Ca
Love to see you again on UA-cam!!! Feels like old times! I almost like it better than the original show. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Looks delicious! I’m growing all 3 veggies so anxious to try. You and Michael are so cute!
Prayers for Aunt Peggy, I love the way you and Michael (Fabio) get along yall make me laugh.
Lovely to watch the video so warm and friendly just what we all need also just made the salad and dressing for lunch had a little taste its gorgeous many thanks Sharon x
There’s something so comforting about watching these videos
Always love you Miss Paula! FYI - my children make fun of me for reusing my foil and solo cups until they crack!
You just need to find something to tease them about when they get after you!! LOL
Its all about being frugal! I do the same thing!
I didn't know this was Paula Dean until I looked to see who the UA-camr was after I watched it...that salad looks absolutely amazing!!!
Thank you for keeping me company while making that delicious salad. Always enjoy your videos. Stay safe and healthy to you and your family.
Paula you are so funny and a joy to watch! Praying for your Aunt Peggy. I sure hope she feels better soon. 😊💕
Thank you for all the recipes you have been sharin, love this one!
My sweet mother in law (born and raised in TN) made this fresh cucumber salad with veggies from her garden. Yummy!
And WATER too the cucumbers..
good morning Ms. Paula....I sure love seeing you...u have given me such inspiration to keep on cooking and fine tune my cooking skills. I learned all my cooking from my momma! I miss her so much...bless u and be safe!
Praying for SWEET AUNT PEGGY !
Ate this all the time. My recommendation, don’t dress it with dressing. Let each individual do that.
I used to hate salads because I didn't like my mother's salad dressing, which she added to the whole salad. When I became an adult, and learned about different types of dressings, I became a salad lover.
Oh my heavens! We are going to enjoy this tomorrow. Thank you. Much love to you Paula and family and all your friends and viewers out there.
Love you so much Paula Deen! You have taught me so many things about cooking and have such a beautiful personality! I love watching your content!!
Doesn't get any better than summer cucumber salad! Thank you Paula and Aunt Peggy!
Love hanging out in the kitchen with y'all!
Praying for Aunt Peggy's back to get better! Memorial Day blessings to you and your family, Paula!
This is one of my favorites!!
My grandparents grew the best corn, polebeans, watermelons and Miss Paula you talking about all those fresh vegetables just made me homesick. LOVE your videos!!
Hi Paula! Looks delicious! Good healthy food. I look forward to your videos each day. Love you💜
Omg yaaaas!!
I love his hair! It’s beautiful. I can’t wait to make this salad.
You look So cute in that base ball hat
LOVE the easy breeze joking way like you invited some friends to hang out. Love it,
Please add more sugar and add onion powder
I bet that's Taste Good.. Elvie
So great I gonna try to do this God bless
You are just so easy and fun to watch. You make people feel as if they've known you for years. Love ya....
Paula I love you!! Can you please tell me where I can get my Dutch oven replaced from your line? Please ma’am. I paid a good bit for it. I just can’t trash it. The porcelain on the bottom broke.
Check on eBay, would be my suggestion.
Sandra Noisewater thanks Sandra! I was hoping I could salvage the one I have. Any suggestions?
Sitting here waiting for my chemo appointment and I am sooooo hungry for that salad now, lol 🥰😷❤️🇨🇦
Paper Moon Bless you 🌷🙏I was doing chemo 11 years ago. I know how your energy decreases , but once you're finished with chemo, you hair starts growing again and your energy gradually comes back. Take it easy and know we'll keep you in our prayers! You'll be fine 😇🙏🌷
franklinmimi God bless you 🌹❤️
Thanks Paula! It looks simple yet really tasty. Can't wait to try it! Keep em coming. We are loving your videos with that good ole down home vibe! 😊
The only thing I’d add is Feta cheese. Looks so good.
Mizz That’s a great idea!!
Yes!! It’s delicious with feta 😋
Great idea ! I’m making this when my family comes over on Sunday !
Tell ya what Miss Paula. If you add a heaped pile of grated Feta Cheese on top, and then garnish with black olives you will have a MACEDONIAN SHOPSKA SALATA.
Or....
Add chopped grilled peppers and olives, and you have a MACEDONIAN SALAD. Go more heavy on the parsley too.
Or...add cubed feta cheese and cubes of watermelon. Omit the parsley but add ripped fresh mint and basil leave. Summer salad to swoon over!
I live on these salads!
I have the recipes on my UA-cam channel. I LOVE WATCHING YOU EVERY NIGHT!! XOXOXOX
I am so happy to hear that your Aunt Peggy is doing well! Love to you ~
Mmm! Looks so good &.easy!
Love these videos! Will be doing this one! Looks like best dishes to me, just beautiful. I love salad...could eat a different salad everyday! Thanks Paula!!!
Aww I hope aunt Peggy gets some relief soon. The back is the worst! God bless you for taking care of her. Tell her to relax and enjoy Casa Deen hospitality!
Paula, such a loss your show is not on anymore...our loss! Love and miss you and keep the video's coming!
I am stupid, but I don't understand when you talk about two part this or that, can you please measure in cups and spoons. Thank you.
Agree. I don't understand what a Part is in measurements.
As far as parts, it can be any basic measurement. It looked like a part in this recipe was about 1/4 cup. So, two parts of oil would be two 1/4 cups. And then she said one part olive oil, one 1/4 cup. If she was making a big batch, then the part would be a cup let's say. So then it would be two cups (parts) oil to one cup (part) vinegar. Hope this makes sense!
@@lindajorgensen2580 Thank you. Now I get it. But why not simply say "Equal Parts" of this or that...
@@okiedokey2772 then people might think you are adding the same amount or equal amounts. Like one part each of oil and vinegar when the ratio was two to one parts. I know, it's confusing!
I love the salad but no parsley
Love this! Variations of this have been on our table my whole life.
My sisters name is Peggy. I’d do anything for her! I live with chronic pain in back- hellish.
