My family used to fix what we called Dutch Dish for lunch. I have never seen anyone else eat or fix this.
Chop tomatoes, cucumbers and onion in a bowl. Pour milk to cover, ( no the milk DOES NOT curdle). Chill for an hour and eat with salt & pepper sprinkled on.
Best with fresh veggies from the garden.
Whenever I fix this at work people look at me like I have 3 heads. Don't know what they are missing.

we do that with sour cream or yogurt.

It's like a cucumber - tomato salad, nothing new to us!

Try this with english cucumbers, the don't have the seeds.

same

My Mom used to make it with a little vinegar and oil.

Ditto. Good Stuff though..

yep...been eating it all my life...best with 1/4 cup ranch and 2TBSP of white vinegar! fresh dill and red onion too!

My Dad loved it made w/venegar and oil. I prefer yogurt.

Yep, mom used can milk. I love it with ranch.

I'll have to try this!!

So...having never made this, those of you who use ranch, do you still do the milk step or just use ranch instead? Same with the vinegar and oil -- in addition or instead of the milk?

Thanks!
