Easy Cucumber Salad

Easy Cucumber Salad
Prep 20 min Serves 4 Source

Ingredients

  • 2 large English cucumbers (thinly sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • ½ red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 2 green onions (thinly sliced)
  • 3 tablespoons fresh dill (chopped)
  • 1 ½ tablespoons champagne vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Steps

  1. 1

    Toss cucumbers with salt. Add the sliced cucumber to a colander and toss with the salt.

  2. 2

    Wash and drain the cucumbers. Set the colander in your sink or on top of a plate, as the salt will pull liquid from the cucumbers. Let this sit for 20 minutes, then rinse the cucumber with cold water.

  3. 3

    Add the salad ingredients to a bowl. Add the drained cucumber to a salad bowl along with the red onion, green onion and fresh dill.

  4. 4

    Make the dressing. Stir the vinegar and honey together in a separate small bowl, then pour on top of the salad.

  5. 5

    Garnish with black pepper and additional fresh dill leaves, and serve.
