Cucumbers are both delicious and nutritious. Because of their high water content, they’re great for eliminating toxins and keeping the body hydrated. Cucumbers are also a good source of vitamins and minerals. They can be consumed in many different ways, but perhaps one of the best is in this salad. Yield: 3 servings.
Ingredients
- 2 cups milk kefir
- 1 to 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 small green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 1 cucumber, sliced
Directions
- Place the kefir in a fine-mesh strainer, poised over a bowl, and cover it with a coffee filter. Let it sit for 2 to 3 hours to allow some of the whey to separate.
- Combine the garlic and onions in a small bowl, and then stir in the salt, pepper, paprika, and cumin.
- Mix in the strained kefir.
- Put the cucumber slices into a jar, and pour the kefir mixture over them. Mix well.
- Put the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. It’s best served cold.
Storage note: This is best eaten right away, but it can be stored in the refrigerator in a sealed container for a few days.
