Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 large cucumbers, peeled and thinly sliced
1 sweet onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 ½ cups mayonnaise, or more to taste
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

Mix cucumbers, sweet onion, and sea salt together in a bowl. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let sit for 30 minutes.
Turn cucumber mixture into a colander set over a bowl or in a sink; let drain, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has drained, about 30 minutes more. Transfer drained cucumber mixture to a large bowl.
Stir mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, dill, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a bowl with a whisk until smooth; pour over the cucumber mixture and stir to coat vegetables with the dressing.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

CUCUMBER SALAD IN A CREAMY GARLIC DRESSING

Cucumber Salad In A Creamy Garlic Dressing image

If you like garlic, you will love the dressing on this cucumber salad. It better to make it ahead to let the flavors meld...I usually make it the day before...the dressing is great on salads as well. Enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

5 baby cucumbers, sliced thin - i use my mandolin ( if you like a sturdier cucumber after soaking in salt...slice them thicker.
2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 red pepper, diced
2 medium tomatos, - i remove seeds, slice thin and cut into fourths - can chop if you wish
2 - 3 radishes - sliced thin
2 - 3 spring onions, sliced thin or 1/4 cup diced red onion
DRESSING
3/4 c mayonnaise
1/4 c sour cream
3 clove garlic, minced - i use food processor
1 /4 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp ground mustard
1 tsp sugar
2 tsp white vinegar
1/4 tsp each - salt & pepper
2 - 3 Tbsp milk

Steps:

1. In a medium bowl, mix all dressing ingredients until smooth. Taste to see if you want to add more seasoning. Cover and chill or even better if sits over night.
2. Place cucumbers in a colander and add 2 tsp kosher salt and toss to coat. Leave drain for 30 minutes...this removes much of the water and won't water down your dressing. After draining, rinse and place in a clean tea towel to dry. Place all prepared vegetables in a bowl and toss.
3. Spoon dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat all cucumbers, as they tend to stick together. I use my fingers, they are your best tools.
4. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!
