Wash and peel the cucumbers, leaving some of the skin on for added texture if desired.
Slice the cucumbers thinly into rounds using a sharp knife or mandoline slicer for even thickness.
Transfer the sliced cucumbers to a large bowl and sprinkle with 0.25 teaspoons of salt. Toss to distribute evenly and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, white vinegar, dill, sugar, remaining 0.25 teaspoons of salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
After 10 minutes, drain any liquid released from the cucumbers and pat the slices dry with a paper towel.
Add the cucumbers to the sour cream mixture and toss gently until the cucumbers are evenly coated.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
