Sour cream and fresh dill are great companions to the cucumber in this summer side dish salad. My mom always made this for every backyard party, and I would place heaping spoonfuls on my plate. This salad, to me, is what summer is all about. It's easy, simple, but full of flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cucumbers, peeled and sliced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1-3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
1
Place the cucumbers in a glass bowl. Sprinkle them with salt and vinegar. Cover and let stand for 30 minutes. You can also let them sit like this in the fridge overnight.
2
Pour off the excess liquid and drain in colander for about 30 minutes to allow complete drainage.
3
Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, dill and pepper, and mix well.
