Notes
- For seedy cucumbers: Slice in half, scoop out the seeds with a spoon, then chop – to avoid watery cucumber and pepper salad.
- For the sweetest salad: Avoid green bell peppers, which have a bitter flavor.
- To further prevent sogginess: Only add the dressing before serving if you plan to store the bell pepper and cucumber salad for several days.
- Leave it to marinate: That way, the flavors have time to meld. 20-30 minutes works well.
