Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Rinse the cucumber under cold water and pat it completely dry with a paper towel to remove all surface water.

  2. Step 2

    Place the cucumber on a cutting board and slice it lengthwise into thin rounds, about 1/8-inch thick, as if slicing a carrot into coins.

  3. Step 3

    Pour the sour cream and white vinegar into a medium bowl and stir with a spoon until smooth and uniform with no streaks.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in the fresh dill, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is evenly flavored.

  5. Step 5

    Add the cucumber slices to the bowl and gently fold them into the sour cream mixture using a rubber spatula until every slice is coated.

  6. Step 6

    Let the salad rest at room temperature for 5 minutes so the cucumbers can absorb the dressing, then serve immediately.
