Cucumbers with Sour Cream and Dill

By boscobojo

Ingredients

• 5 cups thinly sliced English cucumbers (about 2 cucumbers)
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
• 2 Tbl. white vinegar
• 2 Tbl. sugar
• 1/4 cup diced red onion
• 1 to 2 Tbl. minced fresh dill
• 1/8 tsp. black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Peel the cucumbers if you prefer. Place the cucumber slices in a colander, sprinkle with salt and toss to coat. Let stand in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours, allowing cucumbers to release some moisture. Pat cucumbers dry with paper towel. In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, vinegar and sugar. Add sliced cucumbers to the sour cream dressing along with the onion, dill and black pepper. Stir gently to coat. Chill 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to blend.
