CUCUMBER APPLE SALAD Serves 6 to 8 This salad, a Steffi Sussman (my mom, z”l) special, was on our table every Shabbat, for good reason: Easy to make, versatile, multi-seasonal, and downright delicious. Goes with anything you throw at it. Tastes great as leftovers. Feels festive, yet takes 5 minutes to make. Shabbat Shalom! 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar ¼ cup sugar 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt ¼ cup olive oil 12 Persian or 2 small English cucumbers (1 ½ pounds), thinly sliced on the bias 1 medium crispy, tart red apple (such as Pink Lady), thinly sliced ½ small red onion, thinly sliced ½ cup finely chopped dill   In a small, microwave-safe bowl place the vinegar and microwave on high for 30 seconds.  Transfer to a medium salad bowl, add the sugar and salt, whisk to dissolve and let cool to room temperature, 10 minutes. Whisk in the oil, then add the cucumbers, apple, onion, and dill, toss, and chill for 30 minutes before serving. | Adeena Sussman
