GRANDMA'S CUCUMBER AND ONION SALAD



Grandma's Cucumber and Onion Salad image

Both of my grandmothers made this salad every summer when their gardens produced baskets of cucumbers. It's a cool, fresh side dish for any meal. One of my grandmas omitted the green pepper and the celery seed. She also put ice in it to chill it quickly and cut the vinegar taste.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cucumbers. English or Persian cucumbers are best for this salad, as they have a thinner skin and fewer seeds. If using a regular cucumber, peel it and remove the seeds before slicing.
  • Slice the cucumbers and onions thinly. This will help them absorb the dressing better.
  • Use a sharp knife. This will make it easier to slice the cucumbers and onions thinly and evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the salad. If you're using a large bowl, make sure to spread the salad out in a single layer so that all of the pieces can be evenly coated with dressing.
  • Let the salad marinate for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve chilled. This salad is best served cold, so make sure to chill it for at least an hour before serving.

Conclusion:

This onion cucumber salad with vinegar dressing is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a light and healthy salad, give this recipe a try!
