Quick Pickled Cucumber Salad

This quick salad is a cinch to whip up, keeps for several days in the fridge and is a real crowd-pleaser.

I love the addition of some red pepper flakes. A little heat in contrast with the cool of the cukes Ziggysmom Jul 2022 #4

I've made it with the clear vinegar/water/sugar/dill sauce and I've made it with a sour cream/dill or yogurt sauce. One thing I love to do with leftovers is make a cucumber sandwich - just some mayo or Miracle Whip and pile on the drained cucumber/onion mixture!

is awesome. Thai cucumber salad is similar, but adds ground peanuts and cilantro.
Thanks for posting the recipe links; I have not made knish in ages and may add some to our 4th of July menu

menu will be simple as it'll probably just be me. Let us know how the knish works.
