This is a very quick and cool summer salad, but it's also good year-round. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

2 cups thinly sliced and peeled cucumber
salt to taste
¼ cup white balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil (Optional)
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ teaspoon dried dill weed
2 tomatoes, chopped, or more to taste

Directions

Spread cucumber slices in a thin layer on a large platter. Sprinkle salt generously over the cucumber. Let salt soak into cucumber slices for about 30 minutes.
Transfer cucumber to a colander and rinse with cold water; drain thoroughly and transfer to a dry surface. Pat cucumbers dry with paper towel.
Whisk vinegar, olive oil, sugar, and dill together in a large bowl. Add cucumber slices and tomatoes; toss to coat.

Cook's Notes:

You may skip the step of salting the cucumber if in a hurry, but it does take the bitterness out of cucumbers.

Use 1 cup grape tomatoes in place of the chopped tomato if you wish.
