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.
