Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 english cucumbers
  • ⅓ cup feta cheese finely crumbled

Dressing

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Wash and run a vegetable peeler down the length of a cucumber, creating long strips. Stop when you reach the seeds.
  • Combine the dressing ingredients and gently toss with the cucumber ribbons.
  • Allow to sit for 15 minutes. Top with crumbled feta just before serving.

Notes

  • Place cucumber ribbons on paper towels while mixing the dressing to help soak up excess moisture and keep the salad fresher longer.
  • Add the feta just before serving—its saltiness can cause the cucumbers to release water.
