Steps:
- In a medium bowl, stir together the sour cream, garlic, white wine vinegar, dill, sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper until well-combined. Cover and refrigerate.
- Peel and very thinly slice the cucumbers. Add the cucumber slices to a colander placed over a deep bowl. Sprinkle with the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and stir well to coat all of the slices. Loosely cover with a paper towel (or a clean kitchen towel) and allow to drain for 2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes or so.
- After 2 hours, press down on the cucumbers in the colander to extract any extra moisture. Spread out the slices on a couple of paper towels and pat dry. Remove the dressing from the fridge and stir in the cucumber slices. Either serve immediately or return to the refrigerator for 1 hour or up to overnight. Just before serving, adjust the salt and pepper, to taste.

GERMAN CREAMED CUCUMBERS
This is a recipe that has been handed down through many generations in my family. I have had people who hate cucumbers tell me that this salad is excellent.

Steps:
- Salt the cucumbers and onions throughout and place in large bowl; place a plate that will fit inside the bowl on top of them.

- When the time is up, drain the water from the cucumbers and onions; add the sour cream, half and half, vinegar and a tablespoon more of salt, if desired.

GURKENSALAT (GERMAN CUCUMBER SALAD)
A traditional German favorite that I have loved since I was a child. This recipe is quick, easy, and delicious. Substitute cider vinegar for a different flavor. I prefer to leave the skins on the cucumbers for more texture and flavor, but they can also be peeled prior to slicing if desired. Flavor is best when marinated for several hours before serving.
