But it had salt in it! You can’t drink that.. too much sodium!

My mom made this while I was growing up (she is from Reichenburg, Germany) and she would soak the cucumbers in the vinegar for 20 minutes before adding the sour cream. We would eat this cold served over warm fried spaetzle. Try it, it's amazing.

I mix the sour cream, vinegar, salt, dill and sugar in a separate bowl. That way you can get a consistent mix before adding it to the big bowl. I like to go with half the recommended sugar and twice as much vinegar. Family is from the Rhineland

While it was sitting my now husband came into the kitchen, said something like 'sneak attack, and grabbed a slice as his mom and I both yelled a warning. Of course that didn't stop him which gave him a mouthful of salt and us a story to tell everyone at that dinner and many to come.

My mom made this salad when I was growing up in NJ. I had just made some for lunch about a month ago. I never knew it was European. So refreshing on this hot & muggy summer days & nights. I put sour cream & mayonnaise & milk with vinegar & spring onions instead of dill & no sugar. Was great. So easy!!! Ty for posting. Ty 😁.

My mom was Polish, We would eat this and sometimes she would slice up lettuce and add with the cukes before salting then squeeze out the water and dress.

My German grandmother made this salad but prepped the cucumbers and onions a bit differently than yours but somewhat the same principles. Cucumbers and onions sliced thin and then layered in a large bowl. One layer of cucumbers and onions then salt and continue until bowl is filled, salting each layer. Place a plate on top and add a weight (e.g. large can of tomatoes) then allow to sit for as long as possible. Pour out the water then rinse under cold water and - here is the crucial part - squeeze the cumbers and onions by hand. They will be translucent and then continue to finish as in your video. Just a slight variation.

Hi everyone, I’m from Eckington, near Sheffield, UK and I’m highly delighted to see you making this wonderful cucumber salad. Lovely memories of summer with my family. Thanks for reminding me - I’ve only made it twice this year! My father used to make it every summer and we loved it and I still do. Out of our family of 5, mum dad and three sisters I’m the only survivor and I’m 72. I’ve never had the recipe so had to guess. However dad didn’t include dill or sour cream. It’s the first I’ve heard of it and I will certainly try it as soon as I have fed our gorgeous furry friend her breakfast ( Today is Monday 4/9/2023). I peel and finely slice a large onion and peel and finely slice the whole cucumber. Then put everything into a container adding a good few teaspoons of sugar and the same of salt, sometimes less salt. I pour 3/4 pint of white vinegar ish with about just over half a cup of water and mix well. But keep tasting until it’s just right - 😅. I’m certainly going to try ACV with the mother today, can’t wait to make it. Oh also may try the honey tip. All great ingredients imo! I’ve really enjoyed reading the comments here, thanks everyone for sharing. I’ve subbed, liked and shared and will be looking forward to more of your recipes in the future thank you. All the best, enjoy!🇬🇧❤️🦋🌈🐾 xxx

More cucumbers from the garden than I can handle has me thinking about the cross country trip when I stopped for lunch in a little north Iowa small town cafe. The place was packed! I got the last counter stool by the door and ordered a sandwich or something. The gal says- “you want the cucumber salad don’t you?” Not being familiar, I was hesitant, but she insisted I wanted the cucumber salad, so I said OK. That salad, when it was seasonally offered in that cafe, was apparently the reason folks drove from miles around and lined up to get in. One of the few things I’ve eaten in life that stand out as memorably good!

Hello 👋 I'm so glad your channel was recommended to me as I was searching for a good cucumber sald . I'm definitely making these. My dad is German and Polish he will absolutely love this. Thank you to your mom and your great video.

Looks like a keeper. I mix the vinegar with the sour cream before adding it to the salad. About thick as paint. Also black pepper goes so good with cucumber it couldn't hurt. Half a cup of Dukes mayonnaise plus half a cup of sour cream plus 1/4 cup of Braggs apple cider vinegar is a great coleslaw dressing. Adjust by adding 1Tablespoon more vinegar at a time.) Then two heaping teaspoons of honey, two heaping teaspoons of dark brown sugar and three heaping teaspoons of McCormick hot Madras curry powder. Then 3/4 teaspoon each of sea salt and black pepper. Quarter a large green cabbage and crosscut into 1/2" or thinner ribbons. Toss cabbage with cashews, golden raisins (or dried pineapple chunks cut into smaller pieces) and coconut ribbons. All for curried Coleslaw. I got off track pretty bad. Sorry.

My Mom would slice the cucumbers and onions and put them in a bowl together add 1 tray of ice cubes on top and sprinkle 1/4 cup salt over them and then a little cold water also to get the ice and salt working. Leave it sit about 30 minutes. Pick out the ice. Dump the whole thing in a colander and rinse well. They don't come out salty. The dressing is the same as you are doing but she added some black pepper also. The onions are slightly pickled and the cucumbers are REALLY crunchy. Wonderful and refreshing on a hot summer day !

I’m from Hawai’i, but my mom lived in Alabama for a couple of years before I was born because her dad got a job as a truck driver in the states. Anyways, she got a job at a diner and they served a variation of this salad that replaces the sour cream with mayonnaise (my mom said in the south they love their mayonnaise almost as much as we do in Hawai’i 🤭). My mom has passed on, but I still make this salad pretty regularly… I figured it was a southern dish since she discovered it in Alabama, but now I know the owners of the diner she worked at were probably of German ancestry. It’s interesting to know, because I’ve never seen anyone else in Hawai’i eat this salad, but when I serve it people love it.

My maternal grandparents came to the USA from a small village in Northeastern Hungary 🇭🇺 in 1912 with their firstborn daughter, not my mom. My mom learned to make a similar cucumber 🥒 salad from her mother and, later, taught me to make it. The biggest difference is the omission of onion, dill, and sugar. We add Hungarian mild paprika and black pepper. My mother and I always use Knudsen Hampshire sour cream because it most closely resembles the sour cream my grandparents made. I am going to try it with onion and fresh dill the next time. I will still put in paprika and black pepper. Thanks for the video. I enjoyed watching it very much.

While attending the Culinary Institute of America I worked a Christmas break at a German restaurant in the Catskills (Chalet Fondue owned by Utah Seiges & her husband) spelling may be wrong. Anyway they did about 90% of their business in the 2 weeks around Christmas & new years. In addition to surf & turf fondue they made every kind of schnitzel & there was a relish tray served while customers waited to order. The cucumber salad we made was prepped in the same way but no yogurt or onion. Once drained it was mixed with canola oil & white vinegar (1to 10 ratio) plus dill pepper & ground ginger. We also made a grated carrot & grape dish & a shredded cabbage over which boiled pickled brine was poured. Karlo Busonic was my head chef & was a very funny nice guy. Utah housed & fed us during those very busy 2 weeks. I still make the cucumber salad which is fresh & crunchy & goes with anything.
