1 cup sour cream
2 tbsp. vinegar
1 tbsp. fresh dill, finely chopped (optional)
1 English cucumber
1 1/2 tsp. salt

1
Combine sugar, sour cream and vinegar in a bowl. Add dill if you are using it. Let dressing sit while you prepare the vegetables.
2
Use mandoline slicer or knife to slice cucumber into very thin slices. Make slices as thin as possible--1/16 of an inch, if possible.
3
Toss cucumber slices thoroughly with salt and place in colander. Place colander in sink or bowl to catch draining liquid. Allow to drain for 20 minutes.
4
Cut onion into very thin slices. Add onion to dressing and combine thoroughly.
5
Rinse cucumber slices thoroughly. Drain them as thoroughly as possible. A salad spinner works well for this step. Add drained cucumbers to dressing and toss very well.
6
Chill for two hours and serve as side dish or relish with fish, meats or other salads.
