A refreshing and flavorful salad combining cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and red onions, marinated with a tangy dressing and fresh herbs.
Peel the cucumbers and slice them into thin rounds.
Use a mandoline slicer for even and thin slices.
Halve the cherry tomatoes.
Choose tomatoes that are firm and ripe for the best flavor.
Thinly slice the red onion.
Soak the onion slices in cold water for a few minutes to reduce their sharpness.
Combine the cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions in a mixing bowl.
Toss gently to avoid bruising the vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, salt, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar.
Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more vinegar for tanginess.
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Ensure all the vegetables are well-coated with the dressing.
Let the salad marinate in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap to keep the salad fresh.
Sprinkle with fresh basil before serving.
Chop the basil just before serving to preserve its aroma.
