Cucumber Salad (Agurkesalat)

From My Danish Kitchen.
Ingredients:
1 English cucumber
1 c. water
1 c. white vinegar
1 c. sugar
15 whole peppercorns
1 sprig fresh dill

Slice cucumber into very thin slices. Combine water, vinegar, sugar and peppercorns in a small cooking pot and heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Do not boil. Once liquid mixture is cooled off, add sliced cucumbers and dill. Place in refrigerator for 3 hours to marinade before serving. This salad becomes tastier as it sits. You can store it in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
