Steps:
- In a medium bowl, stir together the sour cream, garlic, white wine vinegar, dill, sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper until well-combined. Cover and refrigerate.
- Peel and very thinly slice the cucumbers. Add the cucumber slices to a colander placed over a deep bowl. Sprinkle with the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and stir well to coat all of the slices. Loosely cover with a paper towel (or a clean kitchen towel) and allow to drain for 2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes or so.
- After 2 hours, press down on the cucumbers in the colander to extract any extra moisture. Spread out the slices on a couple of paper towels and pat dry. Remove the dressing from the fridge and stir in the cucumber slices. Either serve immediately or return to the refrigerator for 1 hour or up to overnight. Just before serving, adjust the salt and pepper, to taste.

GURKENSALAT (GERMAN CUCUMBER SALAD)
A traditional German favorite that I have loved since I was a child. This recipe is quick, easy, and delicious. Substitute cider vinegar for a different flavor. I prefer to leave the skins on the cucumbers for more texture and flavor, but they can also be peeled prior to slicing if desired. Flavor is best when marinated for several hours before serving.

- Wash the cucumbers and peel, if desired (we usually don't peel the cucumbers when making the recipe). Thinly slice the cucumbers using a mandolin or the slicing side of a four-sided box grater. Add the cucumber slices to a bowl.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt over the cucumbers and let them sit for 20 minutes. This will remove excess moisture. After the 20 minutes, give the cucumber a squeeze to remove even more water. Be sure to drain any excess liquid from the bowl.
- While you're waiting for the cucumber slices, wash, dry, and finely chop the dill. Make sure to remove the hard stems first. Also, peel and finely chop a small onion. Add both (dill and onion) to the cucumber bowl after the 20 minutes are up and you have drained the liquid.
- Add the oil, vinegar, sour cream, sugar, and pepper to the bowl. Mix well. Add more salt (be careful here since you added quite a bit of salt earlier!) and/or pepper if desired. Serve and enjoy!
