Crunchy Pickled Salad
This crunchy pickled salad blends sliced Persian cucumbers, radishes, and shredded white cabbage with a dill, vinegar, and olive oil dressing. The crisp vegetables maintain their texture after marinating, while the fresh dill and tangy vinegar provide a bright, refreshing flavor. It is a crisp, cold side dish that complements a variety of meals.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds cucumber Persian
- 1/2 pound radishes red or white
- 1/2 white cabbage shredded
- 1/2 cup dill fresh minced
- 6 tablespoons white wine vinegar (or more to taste - use a gluten free vinegar to make GF)
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil (choose a mild-flavored olive oil for best results)
- 2 teaspoons salt (or more to taste)
Instructions
- Slice the cucumbers into small rounds about ¼ inch thick. Do not peel them. Discard stems.
- Remove the leaves and stems from the radishes and slice them into thin rounds.
- Place the cucumbers and radishes in a salad bowl along with the shredded white cabbage.
- In a small bowl, whisk together fresh minced dill, white wine vinegar, olive oil and salt. Add more vinegar to taste for a more pickled flavor, and/or more salt if desired.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to blend.Refrigerate the salad for 30 minutes to let the flavors marinate. Serve cold.
- If you use red radishes, the red color may “bleed” a little and cause the radishes to turn pink. This does not affect the flavor of the salad, but if it bothers you, use white radishes instead.
