Author Notes:

If you're in the mood for a light, cool dish that's perfect on a hot summer day, this is the one for you. The dill actually adds nutritional benefits to a mostly non-nutritional vegetable.

Tip:
For those who don't like cucumber seeds, cut the peeled cucumbers in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Chop cucumber into bite-sized pieces and proceed with the recipe as instructed.

Ingredients: 2 to 3 medium cucumbers, peeled and thinly sliced
salt
1/3 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
black pepper
Instructions:

1. Arrange the cucumber slices in a serving bowl, sprinkling each layer with salt. Place a saucer or other weight on the cucumbers to weigh them down. Cover and let stand for several hours.

2. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, vinegar, and chopped dill and season to taste with the pepper.

3. Pour off the cucumber juices from the bowl and add the sour cream mixture. Mix well with a spoon and serve chilled.
