How do you make a salad with carrots and cucumbers?

It’s easy: slice cucumbers thin, shred carrots, and toss with your favorite dressing — light vinegar or creamy yogurt both work great.

Is it good to eat carrot and cucumber together?

Yes! They balance each other’s flavors and provide hydration, fiber, and vitamins for a fresh, healthy crunch.

Why soak cucumbers in salt water before making cucumber salad?

Soaking pulls out excess moisture, keeps the salad crisp, and prevents watery dressing — a simple step for perfect texture.

How do you make creamy cucumber and carrot salad?

Mix Greek yogurt or mayo with a bit of mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss with the veggies and serve chilled.
