Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs English cucumbers, thinly sliced into rounds
  • 1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced into half-moons
  • 1 tbsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly cracked
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped

Instructions:

  1. Place the sliced cucumbers and red onions in a colander.
  2. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of kosher salt over the vegetables and toss gently to coat.
  3. Let the vegetables sit for 15 to 20 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
  4. Rinse the vegetables quickly with cold water to remove excess salt and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, and black pepper until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  6. Add the drained cucumbers and onions to the bowl and toss thoroughly until coated.
  7. Fold in the freshly chopped dill.
  8. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to set.
