Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 1 whole English cucumber
Slice the English cucumber as thin as possible, unpeeled, into a bowl.
  • ½ whole red onion
Cut half a red onion once down the middle and slice thin into quarter rounds; add.
  • fresh dill
  • white vinegar
  • neutral oil
  • pepper
  • salt
Add a lot of fresh dill, then equal quantities of white vinegar and neutral oil, pepper, a pinch of salt and a big pinch of sugar. Stir.
  • sugar
Make it hours ahead, or the day before, and let it sit in the fridge; moisture comes out of the vegetables. Stir, taste and add more vinegar or anything else.
  • sour cream
Variation, creamy: replace the oil with sour cream, as creamy as wanted; rest in the fridge a long time, then adjust with more vinegar.
