Steps:
- Peel the English cucumber and slice in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds and discard. Grate in a food processor or by hand. Place the grated cucumber in a colander to drain. Grate the white onion and add it to the colander with the cucumber. Sprinkle the salt on top and lightly mix. Press down on the mixture to drain the excess liquid. Let sit for 10 minutes pressing every few minutes to drain. In the bowl of a mixer or food processor add the drained cucumber, onion, cream cheese, and cayenne pepper (or hot sauce). Beat or pulse until just combined. Add the two drops of food coloring and mix until well incorporated. This step is optional but will give you that traditional green color in Kentucky Benedictine. Place into a bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight if desired. Serve on bread with the crusts removed or serve with crackers.

BENEDICTINE DIP
Benedictine is a creamy spread studded with chopped cucumbers. It was named in honor of Jennie Carter Benedict, a chef and restaurateur from Louisville, Kentucky, who created the condiment at the turn of the 20th century. Originally used for cucumber sandwiches, Benedictine is now commonly enjoyed as a cold dip for chips or spread on crackers. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen

BENEDICTINE SPREAD OR DIP
Benedictine is a very unique green cucumber flavored spread that was born in my native state, Kentucky. Benedictine and bacon tea sandwiches are traditional Derby Day fare. It is wonderfully cool and delicious, and is a great spread for appetizers and sandwiches. I especially love it with pumpernickel bread. It looks very pretty...

Steps:
- 1. Peel cucumber; grate over a bowl, using a microplane or fine grater.
- 2. Pour pulp and juice into a coffee filter placed in a small strainer over small bowl; gather ends of filter and gently squeeze and press to release juice into bowl.

- 4. Repeat process with onion for 1 tablespoon juice to add to cucumber juice in pan.
- 5. Place pan over high heat, bring to a boil, then immediately remove from heat. (This will tame the cucumber and make it friendlier to the tummy.)

- MINT JULEP. Celebrating the Run for the Roses? The classic Derby cocktail is a non-negotiable. The recipe itself is straightforward—muddled mint, simple syrup, and bourbon over crushed ice—but that doesn’t mean you can’t jazz it up with jalapeños, fruit (try a version with peaches or blackberries), or even beer and basil.
- BENEDICTINE SPREAD. Light and refreshing, this spread, which stars cucumbers, onions, and cream cheese, can be spread onto white bread and served as tea sandwiches, or placed out as a dip for vegetables and crackers.
- BEER CHEESE. Annie via Flickr // CC BY-NC-ND 2.0. This cheesy dip, best served with warm, soft pretzels, originated in the 1930s in—you guessed it—Kentucky.
- COUNTRY HAM BISCUITS. Salty, cured ham sliced thin, fried, and then layered between buttery biscuits—there might not be a more indulgent Southern specialty that makes the rounds at Derby parties each year.
- BOURBON BALLS. Slice of Chic via Flickr // CC BY-NC-ND 2.0. These boozy bite-sized treats—first devised in 1936 by Ruth Booe, co-founder of the Rebecca Ruth Candy Co.
- KENTUCKY BURGOO. A hearty meat stew, burgoo is most often made with chicken, beef, and lamb simmered with vegetables, beans, tomatoes, Worcestershire, sorghum or molasses, ketchup, vinegar, and spices.
- CHOCOLATE-BOURBON NUT PIE. Though all Kentuckians refer to this confection of chopped walnuts, chocolate chips, and bourbon as “derby pie,” you’ll never see it appear as such in cookbooks, thanks to the aggressively litigious Kern family, who originated the recipe in 1950 and later trademarked the name Derby-Pie™.
