Cucumber-Dill Salad

Serves 4

• 2 cucumbers

• 3 tablespoons cider or white vinegar

• 1 tablespoon sugar

• salt and freshly ground black pepper

• 1 small red onion, sliced and broken into rings

• 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill

Wash the cucumber(s) and partially remove the peel in lengthwise strips using a vegetable peeler or fork and leaving a little skin between each strip. Thinly slice the cucumber widthwise. Place the vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a bowl and whisk until the sugar is dissolved. Add the cucumber, onion, and dill, and toss well. The salad can be served at once, but it will improve in flavor if you let the ingredients marinate for 5 minutes.
