Cucumber: May 2004 Archives

2 cucumbers, peeled and diced
1 - 2 tbsp fresh finely chopped dillweed
2 tbsp sour cream
dash of lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste

Mix well. Chill before serving.

I peeled the cukes for this salad as they were from the market and had been waxed. had they been from my own garden ... the cukes aren't ready yet :-) ... I would have simply washed and diced them. If you want you can cut in halve and seed the cukes first. These were young medium sized cukes and I used the complete vegetable.

I start with 1 tbsp of dill and taste it. If the flavor balance isn't correct then I add more. Cucumber and dill is great combination for a fresh summer taste. I figured cucumber sandwiches are a tasty treat why not leave out the bread and have it for a salad.
