Tips:
- Choose the right oranges: Use navel or Valencia oranges for a sweet and tangy flavor. Blood oranges can also be used for a more unique flavor profile.
- Use fresh cucumbers: English or Persian cucumbers are best for this salad as they have a crisp texture and mild flavor.
- Slice the oranges and cucumbers thinly: This will help them absorb the dressing better and make them easier to eat.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the salad.
- Add some crunch: Toasted walnuts, almonds, or pecans can be added to the salad for some extra crunch and flavor.
- Serve immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The cucumbers will start to wilt if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
Orange Cucumber Tossed Salad is a refreshing and healthy salad that is perfect for summer. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its sweet and tangy dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
