This recipe was the surprise hit of our cooking workshops last summer. Most people thought it was a strange combo, but ended up loving it, myself included.
I was so surprised by this combination, I couldn't stop eating it and will be making it over and over!
This is amazingly good. I had no idea that grapes and cucumber went so well together!
