Ingredients
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice or white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill
- 1 pound English cucumber sliced
- ¼ red onion thinly sliced
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, sugar, salt, pepper and dill.
- I recommend using a mandoline, while wearing cut-resistant gloves, to thinly slice the cucumbers. If you don’t have a mandoline, use a sharp knife to thinly slice the cucumbers, then the red onion. Wrap the sliced cucumber in paper towels and gently press out any excess moisture so it doesn’t water down the salad.
- Add the sliced cucumbers and sliced red onion to the dressing and toss to combine. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Notes
- If you’re using an english cucumber (which I recommend) you do not need to peel the cucumber before making the salad. The skin is super thin and edible. But if you prefer the cucumber without the skin, feel free to peel the cucumber before you slice it.
- Store any leftover salad in an airtight storage container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Give it a good stir before serving.
