We have a tradition at our house to serve this creamy cucumber salad with the other Hungarian specialties my mom learned to make from the women at church. It's especially good during the summer when the cucumbers are freshly picked from the garden. -Pamela Eaton, Monclova, Ohio

MARINATED CUCUMBERS IN SOUR CREAM
Next to dipped in ranch dressing, this is my favorite way to eat cucumbers. I love the cool flavor of the sour cream with the crunch of the cucumbers. If you are like my mom, you will remove the seeds ("to get rid of the burp"). If you're like me, you'll wonder what she's talking about while munching on these, seeds and all! :)

Steps:
- Dissolve the salt and sugar in the vinegar, add the sour cream and stir smooth. You may like more or less vinegar, salt or sugar, but don't make the dressing too sweet. Add the chives, dill and celery seed. Slice the unpared cucumbers paper-thin and combine with the dressing. Chill for 1 hour or more. Sour cream cucumbers improve in taste as they stand. The flavor of the cucumbers seeps into the dressing.
Tips:
- Choose small and firm cucumbers for pickling, as they will hold their shape and texture better. Look for cucumbers that are about 4-6 inches long and have a deep green color.
- Soak the cucumbers in ice water for at least 30 minutes before pickling. This will help to remove any bitterness and make the cucumbers more crisp.
- Use a variety of spices and herbs to flavor your pickles. Some popular choices include dill, garlic, peppercorns, and mustard seeds. You can also add fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, or thyme.
- Make sure to use a clean and sterilized jar for pickling. This will help to prevent the growth of bacteria and ensure that your pickles are safe to eat.
- Store your pickles in a cool, dark place. This will help to preserve their flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Dilled sour cream cucumbers are a delicious and refreshing snack or side dish that can be enjoyed all year round. They are a great way to use up fresh cucumbers from your garden or local farmers market. With a bit of planning and preparation, you can easily make your own dilly sour cream cucumbers at home. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful snack, give this recipe a try!
