Instructions

  1. Slice cucumbers thin and place in a large bowl. (We use a mandoline.)
  2. Slice onion and place in the bowl with the cucumber.
  3. Sprinkle salt over top. Let sit for 2 hours, or until there is a large amount of liquid in the bowl, almost covering the cucumbers.
  4. Drain cucumbers and onion and rinse with cold water. (Taste test here. You can always rinse again if it seems too salty.)
  5. Add heavy cream, vinegar, and fresh dill and stir well.
  6. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
