Wash the celery stalks thoroughly, trim the ends, and slice them thinly at a slight diagonal to give a pleasant aesthetic.
Cut the red bell pepper in half, remove the seeds and core, and slice it into thin strips.
Peel the cucumber, slice it length-wise, and then slice into thin half-moons.
Thinly slice half of a small red onion. Soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes, then drain – this will reduce the onion’s sharpness.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced celery, red bell pepper, cucumber, and red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the white vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, and Dijon mustard until well emulsified.
Roughly chop the fresh dill and add it to the dressing along with salt and black pepper. Stir to mix.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss gently to ensure all pieces are coated evenly.
Crumble feta cheese over the salad just before serving for an added layer of flavor and texture.
Serve the salad immediately or let it chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to enhance the flavors.
