Cook pasta in well salted boiling water until al dente according to package directions; drain; run under cold water to stop the cooking; drain again.
While pasta is cooking, combine all dressing ingredients in a bowl large enough to hold the entire salad; stir well; set aside.
Thinly slice onion and place in a bowl of cold water. This is optional, but takes some bite out of the onion. Drain.
Cut cucumber in half lengthwise; remove and discard the seeds using a spoon. Slice cucumber into thin slices.
Toss all ingredients in the large bowl. Refrigerate for at least 40 minutes before serving.
Serve cold.
