Description

A refreshing and creamy cucumber salad made with sour cream, fresh dill, and a hint of vinegar. Perfect for a light side dish or summer gathering.


Ingredients

Units Scale

  • 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers and red onion.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, vinegar, dill, sugar, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Pour the dressing over the cucumber and onion mixture and toss gently to coat.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  • For a lighter version, substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream.
  • Adjust the vinegar and sugar to taste depending on desired tanginess and sweetness.
