Categories     Salad

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 medium shallots
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 teaspoon dried dill (or 2 tablespoons fresh)
1 garlic clove, grated
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling
Fresh ground black pepper
2 large English cucumbers (2 pounds), or peeled standard cucumbers

Steps:

  • Thinly slice the shallots. In a small container, stir together the sour cream, white vinegar, dried dill, grated garlic clove, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumbers and place them in a colander (if using standard cucumber, peel them first; English cucumbers don't need to be peeled). Toss the slices with several larger pinches of kosher salt and rest 45 minutes. Remove them from the colander and pat them dry.
  • When ready to serve, gently stir together the cucumbers and dressing (don't stir too vigorously or it will cause bubbles). Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 2 hours; it gets watery if you refrigerate for too long with the sauce. If you'd like to prepare it in advance, refrigerate the components separately until serving.
