A fresh and creamy cucumber salad with a tangy, smooth dressing, perfect as a light side dish or quick refreshing meal.

Ingredients

  • 2 large fresh cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar or lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

Instructions

  1. Wash and thinly slice the cucumbers.
  2. Optional: Lightly salt the cucumber slices and let them sit for 10 minutes, then pat dry to remove excess moisture.
  3. In a bowl, mix sour cream, mayonnaise, vinegar (or lemon juice), sugar, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  4. Stir in the chopped fresh dill.
  5. Add the cucumbers to the dressing and gently toss until well coated.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.

Notes

  • Salting cucumbers helps prevent a watery salad.
  • Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a lighter version.
  • Add sliced red onions or radishes for extra crunch and flavor.
  • Best served chilled and fresh.
  • Stir before serving if stored to redistribute dressing.
