4 lbs seedless cucumbers
dash or two of dried red pepper flakes
dash sea salt to taste
3 limes, juiced
1 Tbsp chopped fresh mint leaves
Scrub the cucumbers in clean water, then dice them and put them in a blender; puree until smooth.
Pour the puree through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a glass bowl to strain out any larger pieces, especially of the peel. This may take awhile to strain, so be patient and let it sit.
When cucumber pulp has strained, add the red pepper flakes, sea salt, and lime juice; stir to combine well.
Cover bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
Serve in chilled bowls with sprinkles of chopped mint leaves on each bowl.
Will serve 2 to 4.
