Posted for World Tour 2006, this is a mildly tangy cucumber salad of the sort you can find at small cafes and private homes in Germany. I loved this one when I lived there. It's not fancy but it is definitely tasty.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Peel cucumbers and cut into very thin slices.
  2. 2
    Mix together vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper and pour over cucumbers.
  3. 3
    Marinate about 20 minutes to an hour but no more than that; drain off liquid, toss cucumbers with sour cream, then top with fresh parsley and serve.

Made this exactly as directed. This recipe was very good, but the flavor was pretty mild. Next time I make it, I will add dill weed. Adding the dill will definity take it up a star to five.

    A very refreshing salad. I did not have sour cream so I used non-fat plain yogurt. This will be a regular for me. I bet some dill weed would be good in it!
