Total Time:45 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
4 cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 cup sour cream (Greek yogurt can be a lighter substitute)
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 red onion, thinly sliced
Instructions
Start by preparing your cucumbers. Peel them if desired, and slice them as thinly as possible. This was always my favorite part as a child, standing on tiptoe to reach the kitchen counter, eager to learn from my mother.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, fresh dill, white vinegar, and garlic powder. Mix until you get a smooth, creamy consistency. My mother used to say that the secret to a great salad is in the dressing.
Season the dressing with salt and pepper according to your taste. Remember, a little goes a long way.
Add the sliced cucumbers and red onion to the bowl and gently toss them until they’re well coated with the dressing. This step always reminds me of the laughter and stories shared in our kitchen, a blend of flavors and familial warmth.
Let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
