Wash and trim the radishes. Cut them into thin slices using a sharp knife or a mandoline for uniformity.
Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it lengthwise and remove the seeds with a spoon. Slice the cucumber into thin half-moons.
Finely slice the red onion into thin rings. If you prefer a milder onion flavor, soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes before draining and using.
Chop the fresh dill finely using a sharp knife.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, black pepper, honey, and apple cider vinegar to create the dressing.
In a large salad bowl, combine the sliced radishes, cucumber, red onion, and chopped dill.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Remember that this is a low sodium dish, so avoid adding any salt.
Let the salad sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve immediately as a side dish or chilled for a refreshing snack.
