How to Make Appalachian Cucumber And Onion Salad
- Combine cucumbers, onions, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Gently toss to ensure the salt and sugar are evenly distributed.
- Allow the mixture to sit for at least 15 minutes. This will help to draw out excess moisture from the cucumbers and onions and develop a more intense flavor.
- Once the mixture has sat, drain off any excess liquid. This is crucial to ensure that the salad does not become too watery.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together vinegar, water, and black pepper.
- Pour the vinegar mixture over the cucumber and onion mixture.
- Gently toss everything together until the cucumbers and onions are evenly coated with the brine.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. You may want to add more salt, sugar, vinegar, or pepper to suit your preference.
- Serve immediately or chill for later. The flavors will continue to meld as the salad sits in the refrigerator.
