Notes

How to store
Creamy cucumber salad is best served immediately or for a few hours (a maximum of 4 hours). After that, the salad starts to get watery, and the cucumber loses its crunch. If you want to make it ahead, I recommend making the salad dressing and sliced cucumber separately and combining them when you are ready to serve it. This way, your salad will stay fresh, nice, and crunchy.
