Ingredients
- 2 English cucumber
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 Red onion
- 2 tablespoons White vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 3 tablespoons Sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Sweetener (erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener)
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them very thinly. A mandoline slicer works well for achieving uniform slices.
Step 2
Place the sliced cucumbers in a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and toss to combine. Allow them to sit for about 10-15 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
Step 3
While the cucumber is resting, finely slice the red onion and add it to the bowl with cucumbers.
Step 4
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the white vinegar, finely chopped fresh dill, sour cream, and sweetener until smooth and well combined.
Step 5
Drain any liquid that has been released from the cucumbers and onions, then pour the dressing over the cucumbers.
Step 6
Gently toss the salad until all pieces are evenly coated with the dressing.
Step 7
Season with freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Step 8
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
