A cool and refreshing accompaniment to fish or meat dishes, this classic cucumber salad is so simple and good! You can sub dill for the chives, if desired. Recipe is an old one that has been handed down through the generations, from my mother and grandmother. Ingredients:
2 medium cucumbers |
1/2 cup good quality sour cream, chilled |
1 -2 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives |
salt & pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Peel cucumbers and slice them paper thin (or as thinly as possible), and drain if watery.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the sour cream and chives. Add cucumber slices and stir gently to coat.
3. Season to taste with salt (go easy on the salt) and pepper.
4. Serve immediately, or cover and chill for up to one day.
