For an enhanced flavor profile, consider adding thinly sliced red onion or a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese. If you prefer a sweeter salad, increase the amount of sugar to taste. Fresh dill can be substituted for dried dill weed for a more vibrant flavor. Use 1 tablespoon of fresh dill, finely chopped. English cucumbers, with their thinner skin and fewer seeds, work particularly well in this recipe and do not require peeling. To prevent the salad from becoming watery, ensure the cucumbers are thoroughly drained and dried after salting.
