If you’re not a fan of raw onions in a salad, this one might change your mind. Sweet Vidalia onions are perfect companions for cucumbers in this simple recipe featuring a light vinaigrette that highlights the sweet and delicate flavours.
1 cup Vidalia Onions, thinly sliced
4 cups Long English Cucumbers, thinly sliced
⅓ cup white vinegar or rice wine vinegar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon granulated sugar (could substitute with 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup)
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons dill sprigs, torn
In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, olive oil, sugar (or replacement), salt and pepper.
Add sliced cucumbers and onions, and torn dill sprigs. Stir to combine and allow to sit for at least 5 minutes to allow flavours to blend. Stir again and serve.
