Notes
Note 1: Mini seedless cucumbers have less moisture, and that's why they ideal for this cucumber salad. You can substitute english cucumber for mini ones as well.
Note 2: Roma tomatoes are ideal for this salad because they are low on water content and have more flesh.
Note 3: You can use fresh or frozen edamame here. I used frozen edamame. Thaw, if using frozen edamame.
