Straight from a loving grandmother's kitchen comes this wonderful way to celebrate the end-of-summer bounty of garden cucumbers. Mixed with onion and sea salt and then chilled, the cucumbers take on a tender-crisp texture. Plan ahead to make this simple salad, as it requires several hours of refrigeration before serving.
Special Diets:
Method
In a large colander, toss together cucumbers, onion and 2 teaspoons of the salt.
Place the colander over a bowl to catch draining liquid and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
Cucumbers will shrink considerably as salt releases their moisture.
Rinse cucumbers and onion under cold running water and let drain thoroughly, about 20 minutes, then transfer to a bowl.
Add vinegar, dill and pinch of salt and toss to combine.
Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours before serving.
