- Smoky Cucumber, Tomato, and Onion Salad. Adapted from a Rachael Ray recipe, our crisp summer salad combines cucumbers, tomato, and onion with a smoky, simple vinaigrette for a cool summer side dish.
- Cucumber Kimchi. Kimchi doesn’t necessarily mean cabbage; you can make it with any vegetable you want, including cucumbers. A nice change from your usual pickles.
- Easy Shrimp Salad with Cucumber and Mango. In this salad adapted from Epicurious, shrimp, cucumber, and mango are combined with dill and a lightened-up mayo dressing for a heatless mid-week meal perfect for when it’s too hot cook.
- Five Spice Chicken Summer Rolls. Despite how impressive these look, they’re actually pretty easy to put together since you use leftover cooked chicken (or a rotisserie bird).
- Cucumber Mignonette. The traditional mignonette—made with minced shallots, cracked pepper, and vinegar—benefits greatly with the addition of cucumber in this funky adaption.
- Cucumber and Cumin Yogurt Relish. This tzatziki-like condiment is great on all of the summer staples; grilled chicken, burgers, and veggies. For an especially creamy (and slightly healthier) version, follow the recommendations and go with Greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
- Cucumber Margaritas. For a cool twist on the classic margarita, blended (and strained) cucumber puree adds some depth and a refreshing taste that pairs nicely with the tartness of lime juice and bite of blanco tequila.
- Cucumber and Bibb Lettuce Salad with Creamy Horseradish Vinaigrette. Who said that a simple cucumber and lettuce salad has to be boring? When combined with our creamy horseradish vinaigrette, of course, this salad is easy to make but full on flavor.
- Chicken and Greens Salad with Tahini Dressing. Are you after something a little more substantial? This crisp mixed greens and cucumber salad with shredded rotisserie chicken is an ideal no-cook meal, and the nutty tahini dressing is fantastic on everything.

- Next, chop your English cucumbers. I left the skin on my cucumbers but if you’re using regular cucumbers I recommend peeling them first before adding them to your salad.

- Prepare cucumbers by peeling and slicing them very thin. Thinly slice the onions. Add them to the cucumbers and sprinkle on the salt and sugar, and the vinegar.
- You may want to drain off any excessive juices that accumulate before serving as well, depending on how long they sit before serving. If making the night before, just store in the refrigerator and then drain before serving (I happen to like the excess liquid it makes).

- In a small bowl add the water, vinegar, sugar, and salt. Stir to combine and until the sugar and salt have dissolved. Add the cucumber and onion. Taste and adjust the ingredients to your liking.
- All the cucumbers should be covered in the brine, if you have lots of cucumber or are making a big batch, make more brine.
- Let the mixture rest in the fridge until you are ready to eat. The flavors develop over time, so an overnight soak is great but mine are normally gone by dinner.
