Notes
Recipe Card Tips
- Stick with English or Persian cucumbers. A standard cucumber has more seeds and releases more water, which waters down the vinaigrette.
- Let the salad sit for a few minutes before serving instead of eating it straight away. The salt pulls juice out of the tomatoes, and that juice becomes part of the dressing.
