THE BEST CUCUMBER SALAD!!



The Best Cucumber Salad!! image

A Southern staple. This is ALWAYS requested by those who have had it during cook out season. Fast easy and cheap!

Provided by TheBostonBean

Categories     Vegetable

Time 2h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 large cucumbers
1 medium shallot (2 thinly sliced green onions work also)
1 tablespoon dried dill or 2 tablespoons fresh dill
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons salt

Steps:

  • Thinly slice cucumbers. I use a mandoline for perfect thin cuts.
  • Place cucumber in a large bowl adding salt through out the cucumbers.
  • Place a plate over the cucumbers as to add weight ( i usually put my olive oil can on top of the plate for added pressure). This step is to withdraw as much extra water as possible. Cover for 1 hours.
  • Mix vinegars, sugar and dill, taste, making adjustments for that tangy taste.
  • Empty excess water from cucumbers and add shallots and vinegar dressing.
  • Ideally let sit for another hour, but its hard to resist for that long.
