Cucumber Radish Slaw image

I love to serve this dish when we cook on the grill in the summertime. It's so refreshing on hot days. This was printed in a cookbooklet that I received in one of our swaps.

2 English cucumbers
1 cup thinly sliced radish
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Peel the cucumbers, halve lengthwise and scrape out the seeds.
