Creamy Cucumber Salad (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Salad Base
01 -
2 English cucumbers
02 -
½ red onion, optional
→ Creamy Dressing
03 -
½ cup sour cream
04 -
1 tablespoon fresh dill
05 -
2 tablespoons white vinegar
06 -
½ teaspoon salt
07 -
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
08 -
1 teaspoon sugar
# Instructions:
01 -
Peel the cucumbers and cut them into thin slices. Place the slices in a large bowl.
02 -
In a separate small bowl, mix together the sour cream, dill, vinegar, salt, sugar, and garlic powder until well combined.
03 -
Pour the creamy dressing over the cucumber slices and mix until everything is well coated. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving to let the flavors blend together.
04 -
Serve the salad cold as a refreshing side dish.
# Notes:
01 -
For best results, use a mandoline or sharp knife to get evenly thin cucumber slices.
02 -
The salad gets better after sitting in the fridge - the cucumbers release their juices and blend with the dressing.
03 -
If adding red onion, slice it very thinly so it doesn't overpower the delicate cucumber flavor.
