👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

 

1️⃣ Prep the Vegetables

Slice cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, and optional bell pepper evenly.

Place them in a large bowl or a mason jar for easy shaking.

2️⃣ Make the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, water, sugar, salt, pepper, and dill until the sugar dissolves.

Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat.

3️⃣ Marinate & Serve

Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (overnight is best for maximum flavor).

Stir occasionally to ensure everything is evenly coated.

Drain any excess liquid before serving, or enjoy it as a light brine.

🔥 Pro Tips for the Best Salad

🔹 Use English cucumbers – No peeling or seeding needed.
🔹 Slice onions thin – Soak in ice water for 10 minutes to reduce sharpness.
🔹 Adjust sweetness – Add more sugar if you prefer it less tangy.
🔹 Add fresh herbs – Basil or parsley brighten up the flavor beautifully.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions

Serve alongside grilled chicken or steak to cut through richness.

Top burgers or sandwiches for a crunchy, tangy twist.

Enjoy as a light lunch with feta or avocado added.
