Cucumber Dill Salad

Cucumber Dill Salad- It’s a flavor match made in heaven!

My Zaida, Arnold, was known for making 4 things: fresh orange juice, rootbeer floats, rye and ginger, and “zaida’s pickles”, which I recreated for the perfect summertime salad. Fresh, crisp cucumbers are combined with dill, red onion, and a sweet and tangy vinaigrette to create this healthy salad that makes the perfect side dish. My take on my Zaida’s classic “pickles” recipe.

Cucumber and dill are a far too underused combination. The freshness of cucumber pairs incredibly well with the fragrant dill, but the pairing gets lost in heavier dishes or soups. There’s something almost refreshing about this salad, especially on warm days.

This salad is light and refreshing but packed with flavor. The cucumbers are crisp, the dill is fresh and the vinaigrette gives it just the right amount of zing. It’s perfect alongside sandwiches or grilled goodies, or on its own with a slice of crusty bread.

This Cucumber Dill Salad is the perfect way to refresh your taste buds with a combination of flavorful ingredients that come together in a satisfying mix of cool and crisp.
