CUCUMBER AND
ONION SALAD
Go to the garden and pick several small to medium sized cucumbers. Peel and slice. Peel and slice a white onion. Mix together and sprinkle a little salt on them and let stand a few minutes then drain.
For the dressing use 1 cup sour cream, 1/3 cup sugar and enough white vinegar (it doesn't take much vinegar) to make a creamy sauce. Sometimes I add some fresh dill and sprinkle on a little black pepper but my dill was discovered by the monarch butterfly caterpillars last week and stripped the plants of all greenery. Son advised me to not do anything about them so we have to suffer the rest of the summer with no fresh dill.
Drain the cucumber and onion mix and pour the dressing on them and mix well. Better if refrigerated an hour or so but we never can wait. Sometimes this is the only thing we will have for dinner.
Nothing taste better on a hot summer evening. This is a favorite at our house even grand daughter can't resist a bowl full of it.
Sad but true, the cucumbers are just about through bearing so guess I will have to go to the store for more cucumbers.
