Creamy and crispy, this versatile salad makes a delicious side dish anytime of the year. We recommend using white vinegar because of its neutral flavor but if you prefer the zing of apple cider it could be easily used instead. Because cucumbers tend to weep if they sit too long after being sliced, this salad is best eaten the day it's prepared. Toss some chopped fresh mint into the salad along with the yogurt and dill in step 1. For variation, dice the cucumber and red onion instead and serve it as relish for grilled chicken, fish or beef or as a sandwich spread.
