This Cucumber and Radish Salad with Feta, Red Wine Vinegar, and Buttermilk Dressing is easy but delicious!

If you saw the garden update where I picked all those radishes, you might not be too surprised to see this Cucumber and Radish Salad with Feta, Red Wine Vinegar, and Buttermilk Dressing popping up here. I love radishes, especially the mild ones you get from the garden, and I've had fun trying recipes with them through the years. It took a bit of experimenting to get this recipe just right; feedback from recipe testers on the first two attempts asked for smaller pieces, more feta, and less vinegar flavor in the vinaigrette, and I thought those changes made the salad better. I used small, crisp Persian cucumbers in the final version to make the radishes and cucumbers both equally crunchy in the salad. Garden cucumbers would also be good here, but I wouldn't use large watery cucumbers with a lot of seeds. The Persian cucumbers didn't need to be salted to draw out water, and that kept the leftover salad good in a fridge for a day, so they were a perfect choice to make this.
