FAQ
Can I make this salad ahead of time?
Yes! Make it a few hours before serving and refrigerate. Just note that cucumbers release water over time, so stir before serving.
Do I need to peel the cucumbers?
Not necessarily. Kirby cucumbers have tender skin, so peeling is optional.
What can I use instead of dill?
Fresh parsley, basil, or chives can replace dill if you prefer a different herb flavor.
