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

2 tablespoons chopped chives or a grating of onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, head and fronds
1 teaspoon celery seed
2 firm fresh cucumbers

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.

CUCUMBERS & SOUR CREAM



Cucumbers & Sour Cream image

This is a side dish that is true to my Eastern European roots. I grew up eating this unique, but delicious cucumber dish as a side to a meal of veal & pork meatballs with mashed potatoes. My great grandmother brought it with her from Poland, and my grandmother continued her tradition, then my mother followed suit. I am forever...

Provided by Phyllis Gesch

Categories     Vegetables

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 english cucumbers, peeled & sliced
3 tsp sugar, divided
1 tsp salt
1 dash(es) black pepper
2 1/2 Tbsp vinegar
16 oz light sour cream

Steps:

  • 1. Peel two English cucumbers, and slice thinly. Put in to a medium bowl. Sprinkle cucumber slices with 2 teaspoons of the sugar, the salt, the pepper (to your liking), and the vinegar.
  • 2. Let the cucumbers sit with the seasonings and vinegar for 10 minutes, stirring once or twice to be sure all slices are coated. After about 10 minutes, drain the cucumbers, reserving about 1 tablespoon of liquid behind in the bowl.
  • 3. Once drained, add all of the sour cream and stir gently.
  • 4. Once all cucumbers have been incorporated in to the sour cream, add your last teaspoon of sugar, and mix well. Taste your food -- it should be balanced between the vinegar, the sugar, and the salt, and should finish with a slightly sweet note.
  • 5. Cover and refrigerate for several hours, or overnight. I find these taste best when they have a full 24 hours to hang out in the fridge. Serve cold, and enjoy! These are truly delicious!
