Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium cucumbers
- 1 medium red onion
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh dill
- 3 tablespoons white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly, and cut them into thin slices using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer for uniform thickness.
Peel the red onion and slice it into very thin rings.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cucumber slices, red onion slices, and chopped fresh dill.
In a small bowl, whisk together the white vinegar, olive oil, granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper until the sugar dissolves and the dressing is emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the cucumber mixture and gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
Cover the bowl and let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve cold as a refreshing side dish. Enjoy!
