  • 2 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 pinch pepper
  • 1 pinch sugar

Instructions
 

  • Wash the cucumber and cut it into thin slices. A mandoline slicer is very helpful, as the cucumber slices should be as thin as possible.
    1 cucumber

Notes

Tips for preparing and storing:
You can easily prepare the cucumber salad in advance and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days. If you are not serving it immediately, it's best to drain the cucumbers beforehand. To do this, place the cucumber slices in a sieve, sprinkle them with salt and let them sit for 15 minutes. Then, squeeze out the liquid and mix the cucumbers with the dressing as usual.
