GERMAN CUCUMBER DILL SALAD [GURKENSALAT]



German Cucumber Dill Salad [Gurkensalat] image

Creamy German Cucumber Dill Salad aka Gurkensalat. You can choose to slice your cucumbers fine (the way they do it in Germany) or to cut thicker slices to add crunch (the way I do it).

Categories     Salad

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 large Cucumber
1 1/2 Tablespoon Dill (fresh, chopped)
3 Tablespoon Sour Cream (thick creamy)
1/8 Teaspoon Salt
1/8 Teaspoon Black Pepper

Steps:

  • Rinse your cucumber well and peel. I semi peel mine to add a border effect to my slices when cut.
  • Use a vegetable slicer to cut thin slices of cucumber 9the way it's done in Germany) or cut into thicker slices with a knife (the way I like it).
  • Keep the cucumber slices in a bowl for a few minutes. Excess water will come out, which you can discard.
  • Mix your rinsed fresh chopped dill into the thick creamy sour cream with the salt and black pepper to create the dressing
  • Pour the dressing over the cucumber and mix.
  • Serve your cucumber dill sour cream salad cooled as a summer side dish with grilled meat or for lunch with schnitzel or steak.

GURKENSALAT (GERMAN CUCUMBER SALAD)



Gurkensalat (German Cucumber Salad) image

A traditional German favorite that I have loved since I was a child. This recipe is quick, easy, and delicious. Substitute cider vinegar for a different flavor. I prefer to leave the skins on the cucumbers for more texture and flavor, but they can also be peeled prior to slicing if desired. Flavor is best when marinated for several hours before serving.

  • Wash the cucumbers and peel, if desired (we usually don't peel the cucumbers when making the recipe). Thinly slice the cucumbers using a mandolin or the slicing side of a four-sided box grater. Add the cucumber slices to a bowl.
  • Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt over the cucumbers and let them sit for 20 minutes. This will remove excess moisture. After the 20 minutes, give the cucumber a squeeze to remove even more water. Be sure to drain any excess liquid from the bowl.
  • While you're waiting for the cucumber slices, wash, dry, and finely chop the dill. Make sure to remove the hard stems first. Also, peel and finely chop a small onion. Add both (dill and onion) to the cucumber bowl after the 20 minutes are up and you have drained the liquid.
  • Add the oil, vinegar, sour cream, sugar, and pepper to the bowl. Mix well. Add more salt (be careful here since you added quite a bit of salt earlier!) and/or pepper if desired. Serve and enjoy!
