Creamy Cucumber Tomato Salad
Description
The Creamy Cucumber Tomato Salad consists of peeled, sliced English cucumber cut halved and medium-sized tomato pieces combined with sliced onion. The dressing is made by mixing sour cream with fresh chopped dill, white vinegar, sugar, salt, and garlic powder to achieve a balanced creamy, acidic, and slightly sweet flavor.
After tossing the vegetables with the dressing, the salad is refrigerated for one hour to meld flavors and chill thoroughly. This resting step softens the sharpness of the vinegar and allows the dill and garlic powder to infuse the vegetables. The result is a fresh, creamy, and slightly tangy salad with contrasting vegetable textures.
This salad serves well as a cool side for grilled meats or as part of a light lunch. Leftovers keep well refrigerated in an airtight container for up to three days, retaining the salad’s freshness and flavor. It’s a straightforward recipe that highlights fresh summer produce paired with a dill-infused creamy dressing.
