Ingredients

  • 1 medium onion white, yellow or red thinly sliced
  • 2-3 cucumbers peeled and sliced
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup white distilled vinegar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried dill

Instructions

  • Start by adding your water, vinegar, dill, and sugar into a bowl. Stir well until the sugar begins to dissolve.
  • Now peel your cucumbers and thinly slice them. I used a mandoline for similar-sized cucumbers.
  • Followed by slicing your onion thinly as well.
  • Give the salad mixture a stir and cover and place in the fridge for around 6 hours or longer to marinade.
  • Stir and then serve your cold cucumber onion vinegar salad to guests or your family.
