Grate the cucumber on the large holes of a box grater into a fine-mesh strainer set over a bowl. Toss with the 1/2 tsp kosher salt and let stand for 10 minutes, until the cucumber has released its liquid.

Gather the salted cucumber in your hands and squeeze firmly over the sink to remove as much liquid as possible — the cucumber should feel nearly dry. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
