Notes

  • This cucumber tomato salad is all about the homemade dill dressing.  Use fresh dill, not the dried type.
  • I like to use regular cucumbers that are bountiful in the summer.  Be sure to peel them first, and remove the seeds if needed.
    • To easily remove seeds from cucumbers, cut in half longways, and take a spoon down the center to scoop out the seeds. 
  • English cucumbers can be substituted in and do not need to be peeled.
  • Use whatever type of tomatoes you have on hand. I use grape tomatoes cut in half. If you are using a larger tomato, remove the seeds and cut into small chunks. 
  • Red, orange or yellow peppers can be substituted for green. Or, omit them if desired. 
  • Rice wine vinegar can be substituted for white wine vinegar. 
  • Eat immediately, or prepare ahead and refrigerate to let the flavors marinate the dill garden salad.
