Creamy Cucumber Salad with Dill and Red Onion: The Cool, Crisp Classic
In a bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayo, vinegar, dill, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust — it should be creamy with a slight tang and that unmistakable dill aroma.
4. COMBINE & CHILL
Toss cucumbers and onions with the dressing until evenly coated. Chill for at least 20 minutes to let the flavors meld.
5. SERVE COLD
Garnish with extra dill or a pinch of pepper, and serve cold. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, sandwiches, or even as a topping for baked potatoes.
Storage & Make-Ahead Tips
- Make ahead: Best served the day it’s made, but you can prep the dressing and veggies separately and mix right before serving.
- Storing leftovers: Keep in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Stir before serving.
