CREAMY DILL CUCUMBERS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the milk, mayonnaise, sour cream, dressing mix, dill, celery seed and pepper. Stir in the cucumbers and onion. Serve with a slotted spoon.

CREAMY CUCUMBERS

Steps:

• Toss cucumber with salt in a colander and let drain 15 minutes.
• Whisk together sour cream, vinegar, sugar, and pepper in a medium bowl until just combined.
• Rinse cucumber under running water, then wrap in a kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture. Add cucumber and onion to sour cream mixture and toss to coat.

SMOKED SALMON WITH CREAMY CUCUMBERS

Steps:

• Thinly slice the cucumber on a mandoline and place in a colander over a bowl. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and allow the cucumbers to sit for 5 minutes. Squeeze out the excess water and place the cucumbers in a clean medium bowl. Add the sour cream, dill and 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir with a rubber spatula to combine.
• Lay the smoked salmon on one half of a platter lightly, so there is movement to the plate, leaving open the other half of the platter. Pile the cucumber mixture on a quarter of the platter or spoon into a bowl that fits on the platter. Serve the toasted pumpernickel bread on the other quarter of the platter.

CREAMY BUTTERED CUCUMBERS

Steps:

• Cut cucumbers in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Cut into 3/4 inch chunks. If the chunks aren't firm, place them in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Let drain 20 minutes (if they are firm you may omit this step).
• Place butter in a medium to large skillet over medium heat. When it melts, add the onion and cook 5 minutes. Stir in the cucumbers and cook another 5 minutes. Sprinkle with black pepper to taste.
• Reduce heat to low and stir in sour cream and plenty of dill. Stir and serve warm.

CREAMY CUCUMBERS OVERS MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. Peel and (thinly slice) each cucumber into a colander. And between each layer of cucumber, peeled and sliced, sprinkle with a bit of salt over each. (I normally set my colander inside a larger bowl, to allow the liquid from the cucumbers, to drain into the larger bowl.)
• 2. Let cucumbers sit in the colander for 1-3 hours. Then transfer the cucumbers into another bowl. (Discard the remaining liquid that has drained into the larger bowl.)
• 3. Now add the cream and vinegar to the cucumbers, and gently stir the cucumbers.
• 4. Add the salt and pepper, and once again, gently stir the cucumbers.
• 5. Cover the cucumbers, and place the bowl in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
• 6. Serve the creamy cucumbers over the 'hot' mashed potatoes. (For each serving: Just place desired amount of mashed potatoes onto your plate, and top with desired amount of the creamy cucumbers.)
• 7. Note: Before I top my potatoes with the cucumbers and cream, I first top my taters with a bit of butter, and let it melt into the potatoes just a bit. I just enjoy mine served this way!

CREAMY DILL CUCUMBERS

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl mix together, the mayonnaise, sour cream, ranch dressing mix, dill weed, celery seed, plus the 1/4 teaspoon and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper.
• 2. Add the sliced cucumbers and onion, and gently stir to mix everything together.
• 3. Serve salad immediately.
• 4. Note: I have made this salad twice, once using chopped white onion, and thinly sliced green onion. The second time I made this salad, I added 4 tablespoons of finely chopped red onion, in place of the white and green onion, and that tasted great in the salad too! Also, when I added the sliced cucumbers, they were cucumbers I had in the refrigerator, which help the salad to stay cool.
