Rinse, clean, and chop the cucumbers into ½" thick. Place in a bowl. Add salt and mix. Let rest for 10 minutes (to help draw out / release excess water).
After the 10 minutes are up, rinse the cucumbers with water. Then firmly squeeze the cucumbers to remove any excess liquid. Then place them in a clean bowl.
Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl of crushed cucumbers and mix thoroughly. Let sit for at least 10 minutes before eating. Place leftovers in a air tight jar and keep in the refrigerator.
