Cucumber And Scallion Salad
Cucumbers are in season! Armenian, English, lemon, Persian…and you’ll find them at every farmers market, co-ops and grocery stores galore. Persian cucumbers play the leading role in this cooling salad. It really is a perfect side dish for a hot summer evening. And a no fuss side dish to accompany grilled fish, a bowl of white rice or even homemade sushi! It take no less than 10 minutes to throw it together. Who can argue with that? And it's better the next day. Give it a go, you'll be going back for more, again and again.

1 tsp molten salt
1 tsp sugar
1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced
