The longer you let the this salad sit in the fridge, the more intense the flavor will become. However, the cucumber slices will slowly lose their crispness. Your perfect salad will depend on your personal preference.
This side dish will stay fresh for a week in the fridge as long as you have enough liquid in the jar to cover the cucumbers.
