Cucumber Salad

Servings: 4 | Time: 20 minutes

Cucumber salad is a refreshing, hydrating dish that’s perfect for hot summer days. Using Persian cucumbers instead of traditional garden cucumbers gives the salad extra crunch and a delicate, almost sweet flavor. These smaller, thinner-skinned cucumbers don’t need peeling and stay crisp even after marinating. Tossed with a light vinaigrette or creamy yogurt dressing, it makes a cooling side for grilled meats, sandwiches, or picnics. Simple, fast, and endlessly versatile, cucumber salad is a summer staple that never goes out of style.
