A light and fresh creamy cucumber salad that's ready with just 10 minutes of prep!
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 seedless English cucumbers, thinly sliced (approximately 5 cups total)
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sour cream (or plain Greek style yogurt)
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- Dash of ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley or dill
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Place cucumbers in a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and vinegar. Cover and let stand for 30 minutes. Pour off liquid.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, sugar and pepper until smooth.
- Pour dressing over the drained cucumbers. Stir in parsley or dill and sliced green onions.
- Cover and chill until ready to serve.
Notes
- Use a mandoline slicer to quickly cut the cucumbers into equal rounds. Make sure that you use the wider setting on the mandoline so that your cucumbers are not paper-thin. The thicker rounds stand up to the dressing and stay crisp for longer.
- For the best flavor and texture, use full-fat mayo and sour cream rather than the lower-fat alternatives.
- If time allows, let the cucumbers sit and marinate with the other ingredients for about 15-30 minutes before serving. Do not prepare the salad too far in advance, though. It’s best when enjoyed within about 4 hours so that the cucumbers don’t get soggy.
