1 tbsp white granulated sugar

Recipe Notes
This spread is best used when made or within 2-3 hours.
If you are concerned about the sandwiches getting soggy, spread some softened butter onto the bread before adding the cucumber spread.
To prevent the sandwiches from drying out, assemble the sandwiches, place in an airtight container, cover with a layer of wax paper and then a dampened paper towel. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
The spread is equally good used as a dip.
