Cucumber salad with dill and apple cider vinegar from Root Stem Leaf Flower: How to Cook with Vegetables and Other Plants (page 90) by Gill Meller

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Gill posted this on his Instagram so I gave it a try. The cucumber is sliced and salted, then rinsed and the rest of the ingredients added. I found it a little too salty (probably just personal taste as I don't eat much salt), but otherwise excellent. It's a great recipe to have up your sleeve to help use up the glut of cucumbers and dill. My changes; less salt, omitted the green onions and flowers as I didn't have any. Very tasty and very easy to make. A definite repeat for me.
