Preparation Steps
- Begin by thoroughly washing the cucumbers under cool running water. Slice them into thin rounds, about ¼ inch thick, placing them in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle with salt and mix gently.
- Let the cucumbers sit for 15 to 30 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Allow the excess water to drain from the cucumbers.
- Rinse cucumbers under cold water to remove excess salt. Gently pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Finely chop the red onion and fresh herbs. Aim for small, uniform pieces to enhance appeal.
- In a large bowl, combine dried cucumber slices, diced onion, and chopped herbs. Drizzle rice vinegar and olive oil over the top, adjusting based on taste. Toss gently but thoroughly.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes before serving.
