→ Salad Base

01 - 5–6 Persian cucumbers, thinly sliced into rounds
02 - Juice of 1 lemon
03 - 1 cup fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
04 - 1 tablespoon ground sumac
05 - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
06 - 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

# Instructions:

01 - Place the sliced cucumbers, chopped parsley, lemon juice, sumac, kosher salt, and extra virgin olive oil in a serving bowl. Using clean hands, gently massage the mixture for 2–3 minutes to blend flavors and soften the cucumbers.
02 - Taste the salad and adjust with additional ground sumac if desired. Cover the bowl and let the mixture marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.

# Notes:

01 - For best flavor, allow the cucumbers to marinate longer; prepare up to a few hours in advance if possible.
