Ingredients

  • 1 large English cucumber
  • 21/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill finely chopped
  • 1- 2 tablespoons scallions very thinly sliced
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Crush the cucumber. Cut it into 2–3-inch sections. Place each piece cut-side down and gently press with the flat side of a chef's knife or rolling pin until it cracks and splits. Break into irregular bite-sized pieces.
  • Whisk together the vinegar, sugar, and salt until the sugar dissolves.
  • Toss the cucumber with the dressing, dill and scallions.
  • Chill for 15-30 minutes before serving.
