Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 Cucumbers thinly sliced with mandoline
- 1/2 Red Onion thinly sliced with mandoline
- 1/4 cup Fresh Dill chopped
- 1/2 cup White Vinegar
- 1/2 cup White Sugar
- 1/4 cup Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/3 cup Water
- Salt for soaking cucumbers
Instructions
- Wash and slice cucumbers thinly using a mandoline or sharp knife. Sprinkle cut cucumbers with salt to keep them crispy and set aside. Thinly slice the red onion and soak in water for 10 - 30 minutes to reduce sharpness. Chop the fresh dill and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the ½ cup white vinegar, ½ cup sugar, ¼ cup lemon juice, ½ tsp salt, ⅓ cup water, and ¼ cup dill.
- Rinse the salted cucumbers in a colander, then pat dry with paper towels. Place cucumbers in a serving container, add sliced red onion, and pour the dill vinaigrette over the top. Give everything a good toss, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!
