Preparation

Step 1

Place the cucumbers in a bowl and sprinkle with salt, 1/2 teaspoon of the paprika and 1 teaspoon of the garlic. Set aside, at room temperature, for at least one hour.

Meanwhile, mix the vinegar, water, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic and freshly ground pepper. Mix well.

Drain the cucumbers and squeeze well to remove as much liquid as you can. Place the cucumbers in a bowl and pour the vinegar mix over top.

Add sour cream, if desired, and mix gently.
