Pickling Solution

  • 1 cup white or apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced

Instructions

  3. Combine Ingredients: Pour the pickling solution over the cucumber slices in the bowl. Add the thinly sliced red onion, ensuring all ingredients are well coated.
  4. Marinate: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once the cucumbers have marinated, give them a good stir and serve chilled. Enjoy the refreshing crunch of your Pickled Cucumber Salad!
