Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 english cucumbers thinly sliced
  • 1 small white onion thinly sliced
  • ½ cup white vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons fresh dill chopped
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper

Method
 

  1. Using a sharp knife or mandolin, slice cucumber into thin slices.
  2. Slice onion in half, then thinly slice to create half rings.
  3. Add onions and cucumbers to bowl with dill. Add vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper.
  4. Cover with plastic wrap, then use another mixing bowl pressed into the covered salad to add pressure (I like to place something in the bowl to add weight). Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (the longer the better) to overnight.
  5. Serve with salt and pepper, and a slotted spoon.
