Ingredients

  • 1 large English cucumber (or 2 regular cucumbers)
  • ¾ cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the cucumber under cold water and pat it completely dry with a paper towel to remove all surface water.

  2. 2

    Place the cucumber on a cutting board and slice it lengthwise into thin rounds, about 1/8-inch thick, as if slicing a carrot into coins.

  3. 3

    Pour the sour cream and white vinegar into a medium bowl and stir with a spoon until smooth and uniform with no streaks.

  4. 4

    Stir in the fresh dill, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is evenly flavored.

  5. 5

    Add the cucumber slices to the bowl and gently fold them into the sour cream mixture using a rubber spatula until every slice is coated.

  6. 6

    Let the salad rest at room temperature for 5 minutes so the cucumbers can absorb the dressing, then serve immediately.
