Exactly. Most of the time, since I like it, I add dill weed.

Also, to the OP ~ drain the cukes well to get the moisture out. I use the English cucumbers as they do not have seeds.

Re: Cucumbers and sour cream

My dad made this eons ago when I was a kid. It had cucumbers, sour cream, a bit of vinegar, a tiny bit of sugar (makes a difference), salt & pepper to taste and thinly sliced onion. Now I'm craving some.

Re: Cucumbers and sour cream

In the summer my mom sliced cucumbers, S&P, onions, white vinegar, sugar and dill weed. No sour cream at all in that one.

Re: Cucumbers and sour cream

I have been looking at diabetic friendly recipes: this would make a great snack made with Greek yogurt. I have been using it in place of sour cream: I think I will whip up a small batch. Poodlepet2

Re: Cucumbers and sour cream

I make it with sliced cucumbers, diced up red onions, radishes sliced very thin, garlic salt, lemon pepper and then I add sour cream and stir it all up then put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours before I serve it.
