GERMAN CUCUMBER SALAD WITH SOUR CREAM



German Cucumber Salad with Sour Cream image

This is a very light, tasty salad, and not sweet like many cucumber salads. It's very refreshing with a tangy bite from the green onions. I used dried herbs, of course using less, and it was still very tasty. I got the recipe many years ago from a recipe board online, but do not remember the source. However, it was attributed to a man who made this for his guests at an inn he ran in Germany. I included slicing the vegetables in the approximate time.

SOUR CREAM CUCUMBER SALAD

CAULIFLOWER AND CUCUMBER SALAD WITH SOUR CREAM



Cauliflower and Cucumber Salad With Sour Cream image

I adapted this from a low-carb cookbook. It is super easy and fast to make if you use your food processor's slicing blade. It is also a bit colourful on a buffet table. Times do not include refrigeration.

Provided by Leggy Peggy

Categories     Cauliflower

Time 15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 head cauliflower (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 lebanese cucumbers (the skinny ones)
1 small red onion
1 medium bell pepper, any colour
2 teaspoons salt
1 cup light sour cream
2 tablespoons cider vinegar or 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 -2 tablespoon chopped fresh dill (use 1/3 of this amount if you use dried dill)

Steps:

  • Slice the first four ingredients as thinly as you can. Use a sharp knife.
  • Combine the sliced vegetables and the salt. I usually put them all in a clean ice cream container (with a lid) and shake the dickens out of 'em. Then I put the container in the fridge for a couple of hours.
  • Remove the container from the fridge and drain off any liquid that has accumulated.
  • In another bowl, combine the last three ingredients. Then stir this mixture through the vegetables.
  • Put the lid back on the container and give everything some more good shakes to combine.
  • You can serve immediately, but this recipe keeps well for several days, and usually tastes better the second day onwards.
