We do ours with tomato, cucumbers, & onion. Been dressing it with lemon juice, olive oil, and basil. Summertime favorite for sure.

Could we get the proportions of each? I may be able to get my wife to eat cucumbers this way :tu:

My batch is always by sight until it looks equally balanced. From memory, it's (1) purple onion, (2) peeled and seeded cucumbers, and at least (4) large tomatoes. Squeeze (2) lemons, and splash some really green olive oil in. Salt to taste, & let sit. We thinly chiffonade slice about 10 basil leaves and toss it around.

Pretty similar with Korean mild pepper flakes added. (gochugaru)

Another with a mild sweet heat pepper like Brazilian Starfish and a little dill.

I also make a sweet version with daikon radish

GMB, since you're going Oriental, we like to do Asian style foods with a vinegar/sesame oil dressing. Goes great with onion, carrots, & cilantro

I like most cukes and onions. Its not often i try one i dont like. My vinegar selection is massive. I have a few well over 20yrs old and good aged Chinese black vinegar from central China. Most often though i just use a very affordable cider vinegar or i get Japanese rice vinegar by the gallon. This is not the seasoned stuff for sushi. Its just rice vinegar and makes great cuke salad.

This is sweet picked radish. A common side dish in Korea with fried chicken. VERY easy to make and ready in a few days. If you want to try it google "Chicken Mu or Moo". I stain mine with turmeric but that is optional.

My wife and I were just talking about that the other day.
My mom used to make it all the time in the Summer.
Good stuff.
