Ingredients

  • 2 English cucumbers, diced
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar or honey
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, minced

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Small mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Knife
  • Chopping board

Method

  1. In a large bowl, toss together cucumber, tomatoes, and onion.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, and dill.
  3. Pour over cucumbers and toss to combine.
  4. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

Helpful tips

  • Cut the vegetables into evenly sized pieces so each serving has a balanced mixture.
  • Let the salad chill for at least 1 hour so the flavours combine.
  • Taste before serving and adjust the salt, acidity or sweetness as needed.
  • For the crispest texture, avoid making the salad more than a few hours ahead.

Storage

Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 days. The vegetables will release liquid and gradually soften, so the salad is best served on the day it is made.
