Cucumber salad is actually totally simple and unspectacular. But isn’t that exactly what makes a good side dish? Something simple and unspectacular that will add the finishing touch to your food. That’s exactly what this cucumber salad is all about. It’s simple and plain, the cucumbers are sliced very thinly and dressed with herbs, lemon juice, a little sweetness and sour cream. A little oil is added to give the whole thing a salad finish.
When I asked my grandma about this recipe, she started – like grandma’s do it – to fetch the herbs from the chamber and peel the cucumber. She explained to me that she only coarsely peeled the cucumber to keep some fibers from the peel. Then she cuts the cucumber into wafer-thin slices, which can later be placed in the sauce more easily. For the sauce, she mixes a little oil with sugar, fresh herbs and lots of dill, lemon juice and sour cream. The dressing is ready. The cucumbers are then placed in it, which should then steep for a few minutes. Grandma’s cucumber salad is ready.
By the way, we always have the right cucumber salad to go with Grandma’s Grandma’s turkey schnitzel .

Cucumber salad is definitely one of my favorite side dishes. Thai cucumber salad is one of the variations that I’ve wanted to try for myself for so long. The result was this recipe that I succeeded in straight away. As always, all you need here is simple ingredients that are all available in the supermarket and only a few minutes to prepare everything. Since the cucumber salad is not cooked, the pots will also stay cold. This saves even more time, so that you can serve this delicious cucumber salad in just 10-15 minutes. But here’s a little tip: The Thai cucumber salad tastes best when it has been able to steep for a few more minutes.

With this chickpea salad you can conjure up a great side dish in just 15 minutes! Whether for grilling, as a healthy lunch or meal prep, this chickpea salad is simply a feast for almost any occasion. This salad is a great dish, especially in summer, as it tastes very good cold and is very popular as a light summer dish.
You only need a little time and a few ingredients for the preparation. Of course you can vary the chickpea salad as you like, but I prefer to use chickpeas with tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and feta. As an add-on I have lots of fresh chopped parsley and a light dressing made from olive oil and lemon juice. What could be better?

When I was in Hamburg for a few days at the beginning of this year, of course, I couldn’t avoid eating fresh fish from the Nordic seas. Since I’m honestly not a big fish eater, I usually get a round of fried fish with crispy breading and lots of tartar sauce. I was also served a wonderful potato and cucumber salad, which for me was the highlight of the whole dish. Now – a few months later – I’ve finally tried the same combination for myself. Here you can see the result.
For my potato and cucumber salad I wanted to create a sweetish-sour note, which was refined with small onion cubes and lots of dill. So I threw boiled potatoes together with thinly sliced cucumber slices and shallots in a large bowl and mixed a marinade of linseed oil, vinegar, salad herbs, dill and a little sugar. The whole thing has to go through a bit, of course, so that all the flavors unfold and the starch of the potatoes spreads onto the sauce.
