Yield: 6 - 8 serving(s) Prep time: PT30M Cook time: PT0S Total time: PT1H Ingredients - 1 small red onion, halved lengthwise, thinly sliced - 2 lb. Persian or English cucumbers, cut into 1/4"-thick rounds - 2 1/4 tsp. (or more) kosher salt, divided - 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil - 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar - 1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice - 1 tbsp. whole-grain mustard - 1 tsp. honey - 1/4 tsp. black pepper - 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes (optional) - 1/3 c. chopped fresh dill - 1/4 c. thinly sliced chives Instructions 1. Place onions in a small bowl of ice water; let soak 15 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, place cucumbers in a salad spinner or colander set over a bowl, then toss with 2 teaspoons salt. Let sit, tossing occasionally, until cucumbers release their water, about 15 minutes. 3. In a small bowl, mix oil, vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, honey, black pepper, red pepper (if using), and 1/4 teaspoon salt. 4. Remove excess water from cucumbers with salad spinner or by blotting with paper towels, then transfer to a large bowl. Drain onions and add to bowl, along with dressing, dill, and chives. Toss well to combine. Let sit until salad absorbs some of the dressing, about 15 minutes; season with more salt, if needed. 5. Make Ahead: Salad can be assembled 2 days ahead. Store in an airtight container and refrigerate. Serve cold.
