Slice the cucumbers very thinly and toss them with salt.
Let the cucumbers release their water, then squeeze them.
Mix the vinegar, sugar, and sweet paprika.
Toss the cucumber with the dressing and serve cold.
Add two spoonfuls of the uborkasalata dressing and taste, adjusting salt and tartness to the cucumber texture.
Scatter the fresh herb over the uborkasalata at the last moment so the cucumber aroma is not overpowered.
Transfer the uborkasalata to a serving plate and bring it to the table while the dressing is glossy.
💡 Tip: Very thin cucumber slices marinate quickly. Salt the cucumber and squeeze out its water; after 30 minutes of resting, the dressing will not become watery.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve in a wide bowl or plate with thin lemon slices and parsley leaves on top.
