Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium cucumber
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and pat them dry.
Thinly slice the cucumbers using a knife or mandoline and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and thinly slice the red onion into half-moons. Add the red onion to the bowl with the cucumbers.
Finely chop the fresh dill and sprinkle it over the cucumber and onion mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the white wine vinegar, olive oil, sugar, kosher salt, and black pepper until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is well combined.
Pour the vinaigrette over the cucumber and onion mixture and toss gently to coat evenly.
Let the salad sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. For a more intense flavor, refrigerate it for 30 minutes before serving.
Serve chilled as a side dish or a refreshing snack.
