Pressed cucumber-sour cream salad

Submit a recipe photo

Ingredients:
3.1/2 lbs. cucumbers
1 Tbs. salt, and more to taste
1/2 cup sour cream
2 Tbs. lemon juice
1 tsp. sugar

Directions:
Peel the cucumbers, cut them in half lengthwise, remove any large seeds, and slice the cucumbers as thinly as possible. Toss the slices with the salt and leave them in a colander to drain for at least 1/2 hour.
Taking the slices a handful at a time, squeeze out the excess moisture between the palms of your hands. Combine the slices in a bowl with the sour cream, lemon juice, sugar, and a tiny bit more salt if it is needed. Toss together until all the slices are evenly coated, chill briefly, and serve.
Serves 6 to 8.
