Our Best Cucumber Salad Recipes
Whether you learned how to grow cucumbers in your garden at home or buy whatever is in season when you visit the local farmers market, you’ll find no shortage of this refreshing green fruit come summer. And, while you can certainly slice them up for leafy green salads or turn them into homemade pickles, it just wouldn’t be summer until you’ve made at least one cucumber salad. There are lots of ways to make this classic dish but, when many people think of cucumber salad, they’re probably thinking of this recipe. It’s a great place to start for a proper Eastern and Central European-style cucumber salad. Cucumbers and sweet onions glazed with a tart sour cream and dill dressing make for a refreshing accompaniment to any main.
