VIRAL Tiktok Cucumber Salad In A Jar (Logan’s recipe)

Sometimes you just need to eat an entire cucumber. This is my take on the viral cucumber salad recipe that is very simple to make and keep. It is easily customizable and pairs as a salad/side dish for any meal. 

I first saw this trend on TikTok a few weeks ago and thought to myself and it couldn’t be that good/smart a recipe. Until I made it and I cannot stop making it since. The beauty about this recipe is that you can customize it to your liking and that you make it and store it in the jar itself. It is the best recipe to make with leftovers from your fridge that is a delicious leftover makeover recipe. 

What is the cucumber trend on TikTok?

The viral TikTok trend comes from a creator by the name of Logan also known as the cucumber guy. He has been sharing multiple recipes of slicing a cucumber over a large jar and adding ingredients into the jar, closing it with a lid and shaking it until well combined. He starts off the video by saying, “sometimes you just need to eat an entire cucumber”. It is only natural for this topic to be trending as it is so simple and a creative way to add more veg into our diet. 

What ingredients do you need to make the viral cucumber salad?

The sky is the limit with this recipe, I have used English cucumbers but you can use any large cucumber or 2-3 small cucumbers, garlic cloves, lemon, cumin powder, olive oil, feta cheese, salt, pepper and fresh herbs. I have used a combination of fresh dill and mint to make this salad and it is delicious.

What equipment do you need to make the viral cucumber salad?

There are two equipment in this recipe, we need a large jar with a fitted lid and the slicer, I used a mandolin but you can use any slicer you have or even the slicer on the box grater. Alternatively you can use you knife to thinly slice the cucumber. I have used a microplane grater to mince the garlic but you can chop it finely as well. 

How to make the viral cucumber salad?

Place the mandolin/slicer over the large jar. Slice the cucumber over the jar and be careful not to hurt your finger in the process. Add the feta cheese, lemon juice, fresh hers (which I just tear apart), minced garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper. Cover the jar with the lid and shake well to make sure the ingredients are well combined. Open the jar and eat/serve directly from the jar or transfer to a bowl.

Serving and storing the viral cucumber salad?

Serve this salad on its own and snack on it all day or serve it with my marry me chicken or any grilled chicken/fish/steak. I would also serve it with boiled eggs and sweet potatoes. In many ways it is also a delicious option to serve it in a wrap or sandwich. The beauty about this recipe is that we store the leftovers in the same jar in the fridge.
