Notes

For optimal freshness, select firm cucumbers and ensure they are evenly sliced to maintain a consistent texture. Smoked salmon should be handled gently to avoid breaking its delicate texture. Adjust the amount of lemon juice and dill to suit personal taste preferences, and feel free to add a dash of honey if you prefer a hint of sweetness in your salad.
