Gather @white vinegar{80%ml} and @fresh dill{0.25%bunch}.

Toss the sliced @cucumber{2} with the @salt{1%tsp} in a colander set over a bowl and let it sit until visibly weeping, about 15 minutes. ~{15%minutes}

Squeeze the slices firmly by the handful to force out the remaining liquid, then pat dry.

Whisk the vinegar and @sugar{3%tbsp} together until the sugar dissolves.

Toss the pressed cucumber in the vinegar brine with the dill and @black pepper{0.25%tsp}.

Chill at least 10 minutes before serving so the flavors settle. ~{10%minutes}
