Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 English cucumbers
  • 1 cup red onions (thinly sliced)
  • salt
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1/2 cup fresh dill (chopped)

Instruction

  • Place the sliced cucumbers and red onions in a bowl. Toss with 1 1/2 tablespoon salt until evenly coated. Transfer to a colander and place over a bowl.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge to drain for 4 hours or overnight. Throw out the liquid that's accumulated in the bowl.
  • In a mixing bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, sugar, black pepper, dill and 2 teaspoons salt until evenly combined.
  • Layout cucumbers in a single layer on a thick layer of paper towels then top them with a second layer of paper towels. Press lightly to remove any extra moisture. 
  • Add the cucumbers to the mayonnaise mixture and toss to coat well. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 2-4 hours to allow flavors to marry. 
  • When ready to serve, taste for seasoning (I added 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and tossed). Best served cold.
