The cucumber is usually peeled in France, but you can leave the peel on if you prefer.
Slice the cucumber into the thinnest slices you can. A mandolin is used for this in France, or you can use the wonderful attachments you now have with your food processors.
Place the sliced cucumber on a large plate and sprinkle with salt.
Place another plate on top of them and put a weight on top of this.
Leave for about an hour.
Drain off the liquid and wash the cucumber in a sieve under cold running water, then dry it.
