The Perfect Fresh, Cool, Crisp Cucumber and Radish Salad
This is the best summer recipe! The combination of cool cucumber, slightly bitter radish, a yummy Greek yogurt dressing and plenty of fresh herbs cannot be beat. Plus, there’s no cooking involved. Just combine the ingredients, and serve!
What’s In a Radish Cucumber Salad?
- Greek Yogurt: I prefer to use whole-milk Greek yogurt in this recipe, but you could easily sub it for low-fat or fat-free yogurt! If you need to keep this recipe dairy-free, you can use your favorite dairy-free yogurt instead!
- Garlic: you’ll need at least one garlic clove for the dressing, but you can always add more if you prefer a stronger garlicky taste.
- Lemon Juice: the acidity adds a bright, refreshing taste, balancing some of the richness of the yogurt.
- Red Wine Vinegar: this helps thin the yogurt, creating a pourable dressing and adds a delicious, sweet, tangy taste.
- Fresh Dill: I love fresh dill in a salad! It contains bright, sweet, tangy, almost citrusy notes, adding so much depth to the salad.
- Veggies: English cucumbers, radishes, and green onions form the bulk of the salad. If you can’t find English cucumbers, Persian cucumbers are very similar.
My Favorite Pairings
Refreshing and flavorful, this salad is a fabulous addition to any meal! Some of my favorite main courses to pair it with include:
Can I Make This Recipe Ahead of Time?
Because the cucumber tends to release quite a bit of water as it sits, I prefer to eat this salad fresh on the first day of making it!
