Radish Cucumber Dill Salad Ingredients
- English Cucumber - I like to use a large English cucumber because you don't need to deseed or peel them.
- Radishes - you'll use several small red radishes, or you can substitute for Easter radishes if you'd prefer.
- Feta Cheese - a little crumbly feta cheese adds fantastic flavor and a little saltiness. You can substitute for mozzarella if you'd prefer.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil - use a good quality olive oil as it's the base of the dressing.
- Lemon Juice - use freshly squeezed lemon juice if possible. The bright, citrus really punches up the salad.
- Sea Salt - helps to bring out the bright flavors of all the other ingredients.
- Black Pepper - adds a very small amount of heat to the salad.
- Fresh Dill - use some chopped dill to round out all the flavors of this salad. You can substitute for basil or mint as well.
