This recipe is inspired by pickles. When I told my friend Louis that I was going to make this, he said ewww. And he still didn't like it after it was done. But I did. Here's why I made it. I wanted to make something sweet and refreshing with the cucumber. Lots of people had already done mint combos with the cucumber, so I didn't want to do that. And then I opened the fridge door, saw a jar of dill pickles in the fridge and it hit me. Not the door, but the idea. So here it is. Hope you enjoy. Note: you can use any sweet tart shell. I got my recipe from http://www.davidlebovitz.com/archives/2009/05/french_tart_dough_a_la_francaise.html. It's a pretty interesting recipe and trying it was another reason for wanting to make a tart. I won't reprint the recipe here, since it's not my own, but the filling is! Note 2: Louis now claims to like it, but I'm incredulous.
