Preparation
Step 1
Peel cucumbers and finely slice into 2mm / 0.2" slices using a mandoline (or by hand and show off your knife skills!)
Step 2
Mix dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
Step 3
Toss cucumbers with dressing, then set aside for at least 4 hours or even overnight. The cucumbers will soften and leach juice which will thin the dressing to the right consistency.
Step 4
Serving: Toss well then transfer to bowl for serving. Serve chilled for the most refreshing flavour!
