There are lots and lots of cucumber salads in the world of recipes. I really love the crispness of the cucumbers, the bite of the white vinegar and slight sweetness. Of course there’s dill and plenty of it. I’m pretty sure dill exists solely to be used with cucumbers.
This version is essentially the same as my all-time favorite creamy version but minus the ‘creamy’.
The Perfect Pork BBQ Sandwich Topping
This cucumber salad does not have to be served just as a salad, either. It’s fantastic on top of a pulled pork sandwich. It’s also a nice change from the usual dill pickle slices (or coleslaw) you often find on a sandwich. The crunchiness and flavors are fantastic.
