1 ½ unpeeled English cucumbers, sliced thin*
½ cup minced scallions, white parts only
1 1/2 cups sour cream
4 tablespoons rice vinegar
2+ teaspoons dried dill weed
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black peper
*English cucumbers are long, with tender, un-waxed skins that are pleasant to eat. American cucumbers can be substituted, but you must peel them first.

  2. Mix the scallions, sour cream, vinegar, dill weed, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Pour over the cucumbers and mix well.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for two to three hours to develop the flavors.
