Good to know when making chickpeas, feat and cucumber salad.
If the salad is not served immediately, it is best not to add the salad mix to it but just before serving the salad.
I don’t peel the cucumbers, I add them to the salad with the peel.
Before adding canned chickpeas to the salad, they should be drained. It is best to pour them into a strainer and set them aside for a moment to completely drain off any excess liquid.
I cook the eggs until hard-boiled for 9 minutes.
