Notes
English cucumbers are best—they're firmer, less watery, and don’t need peeling.
Pat cucumbers dry before mixing to prevent excess liquid.
For best texture, mix dressing and veggies just before serving.
Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days; stir before serving. Salad may release liquid as it sits—drain excess liquid if needed.
