Cherri’s Sour Creamed Cucumbers Recipe

Cherri’s Sour Creamed Cucumbers Recipe is another one of my Mom’s recipes. She would make this for our summer picnics or BBQs and it was, and still is, one of my favorites. The crispy cucumbers, with the onions and sour cream. YUM!

• 1/2 cup White Vinegar 1/2 cup White Vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Salt 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Sugar 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Black Pepper (optional) 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 5 Cucumbers (thinly sliced) 5 Cucumbers
• 1 Large Yellow Onion (thinly sliced) 1 Large Yellow Onion

Directions

Step 1

Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

This is similar to yogurt tzatziki, but instead of a sauce it’s served more like a salad.  You can serve this with a middle-eastern buffet and everyone would be pleased.

I don’t think my mom made this recipe up. I’m guessing it’s just one of those common recipes for her generation, one that is lost to most. But, I’m bringing it back to you!
