Serving
It's best to serve cucumber salad in a glass bowl to highlight its fresh colors. Serve it chilled as a side dish to meats or potatoes. You can garnish the dish with fresh dill on top and serve it with a slice of fresh bread.
🥡
Storage
Store leftover cucumber salad in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator, preferably for up to 2 days. Freezing is not recommended, as cucumbers lose their crunch. If you want to eat it again, it's best served cold straight from the fridge.
