Notes

Can I make this salad ahead?

Yes, cucumber and radish salad can be made ahead of time. The only concern is that cucumbers do contain some moisture so if making ahead, please see full article on how to drain out excess moisture from cucumbers prior to making.

Can you use dried dill for fresh?

Nothing takes the place of fresh herbs, however if needed, 1 tsp dried dill is the same as 1 tablespoon fresh dill.
