Crunchy Radish and Cucumber Slaw
2 English cucumbers
6 radishes
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
Red onion, minced
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon sugar
Salt and pepper
Peel the cucumbers. Halve lengthwise and scrape out any seeds with a teaspoon. Slice cucumbers thinly on the diagonal. Cut the stem and root ends off the radishes; thinly slice.
Toss cucumbers and radishes with Kosher salt in a large colander. Place a plate over the vegetables and weigh down with a heavy object. Drain in a sink for 20 minutes, squeezing vegetables dry with paper towels.
Transfer vegetables to a large bowl; add onion, vinegar, olive oil, and sugar. Toss to mix thoroughly. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
