Method
 

Steps
  1. Begin by washing and scrubbing your cucumbers under cool running water to remove any dirt. Slice them into thin rounds or half-moons for better dressing absorption.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together honey, freshly squeezed lime juice, salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Taste and adjust honey or lime juice if desired.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, add the sliced cucumbers, then pour the prepared dressing over them. Gently toss until coated.
  4. Let the salad sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Before serving, give the salad a gentle toss again and sprinkle optional ingredients if using. Serve in a bright bowl and enjoy!
