Description

Creamy Cucumber Salad is a refreshing side dish that combines crispy cucumbers with a rich and flavorful sour cream dressing. Its simple preparation and fresh ingredients make it an ideal choice for quick dinners and gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 english cucumbers approximately 1-1¼ pounds, sliced ⅛-inch thick
  • ¼ cup sliced red onion ⅛-inch thick, from about a quarter of a medium onion
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill
  • 1½ teaspoons granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine the sliced cucumbers and red onions in a large bowl.
  2. In a separate small bowl, mix together the sour cream, white vinegar, fresh dill, granulated sugar, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  3. Pour the creamy dressing over the cucumbers and onions, and gently fold to ensure everything is well coated.
  4. Serve the salad in a decorative bowl.

Notes

For added flavor, let the salad sit in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving to enhance the taste.
Feel free to substitute with Greek yogurt for a healthier version of the dressing.
This salad pairs well with grilled meats and is an excellent potluck dish.
