The recipe itself is simple: sliced cucumbers, sour cream, a little lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper. It really can’t get much easier. We add a little bit of sugar too, to offer sweetness and cut the acidity, but it’s not vital to the overall taste. The end result is a salad that is perfect for lunch or dinner; easily taken to a potluck or served with a barbecue. Actually, we really like this as a side dish to our favorite barbecue ribs. We went with English cucumbers here, they’re considered seedless, although there are some small seeds inside (the seeds of a cucumber tend to be a bit bitter). But don’t go fancy here – just grab a few cucumbers at the store and enjoy!
