Ingredients

  • 3 English cucumber about 2 to 2½ pounds, large
  • 1 red onion small
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup mayonnaise do not use "salad dressing" such as Miracle Whip, good quality
  • ⅓ cup sugar (add a bit more if desired)
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt Morton brand
  • 1 tablespoon dill chopped, fresh
  • ground black pepper if desired

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Slice cucumbers and onion thinly, and add them to a large bowl. I prefer the slices to be between 1/16" and 1/8" thick - a mandoline works great for this!
  2. In a small bowl, stir together sour cream, mayonnaise, sugar, white vinegar, salt, and dill. If desired, thin down the dressing with a little more vinegar, or some milk or cream. Pour dressing over over sliced cucumbers and onion, and fold to combine.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours. Fold right before serving and sprinkle with black pepper if desired.
