Creamy Cucumber Salad

Every year my husband and I plant a large garden and one of the items we plant are cucumbers. If you plant cucumbers, you know that you can get tons of them every season. One of the things we like to make with our fresh cucumbers is Cucumbers In Sour Cream Salad. This recipe will make 4-5 hearty servings.

If you are looking for a freezer cucumber salad recipe I do have one of those here on my blog too.

Optional: Chop 10 cherry tomatoes in half and toss into the mixture until blended.

Cucumbers In Sour Cream Salad Recipe

2 large cucumbers, sliced
1 teaspoon table salt
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon minced or finely chopped onion
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon dill

Wash and slice your cucumbers and place them into a bowl. Sprinkle with the salt and cover your bowl. Refrigerate for 1 hour.

In a separate bowl, combine together the sour cream, white vinegar, chopped onion, granulated sugar and the dill. Pour this mixture over top of the slice cucumbers and refrigerate for 2-3 hours to allow it to marinate.

This is the type of salad that you want to keep refrigerated and serve chilled.
