Mom's Creamed Cucumbers

Another dish I did not appreciate until closer to being an adult. This recipe goes as far back as I can remember and then some. If you want a more creamier cucumber recipe, I will be posting one that involves yogurt, that is just as nice! A good, old time salad recipe that is just as good today as it was 20 years ago!

3 large cucumbers

1 large onion, sliced

3/4 cup sour cream

1 T. Vinegar

1 tsp Milk (to thin, if needed)

1T. Salt

a pinch to 1 T. of sugar (to taste)

Rinse cucumbers off, cut ends off, and cut into slices. slice the onion. Place cucumbers and onion in bowl, add the salt, put ice cubes and water over the cucumber/onion mixture to cover, let sit for a couple of hours, then drain. Add sour cream vinegar and a pinch of sugar, mix, if thick add milk. add drained cucumbers to mixture, taste and adjust seasonings, cover and refrigerate.
