Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 English cucumber, thinly sliced
- 20 radishes (2 bunches), trimmed and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup chives or green onion (1 bunch), chopped
Dressing
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 3/4 tsp sea salt, or to taste
Instructions
- Combine vegetables: In a medium salad bowl, add the thinly sliced cucumbers, thinly sliced radishes, and chopped green onions or chives. Gently toss to mix the vegetables evenly.
- Add dressing and salt: Just before serving, add 3/4 cup of sour cream and 3/4 teaspoon of sea salt (or adjust salt to your taste). Stir carefully to coat all the vegetables evenly with the creamy dressing without bruising the slices.
Notes
- For a tangier flavor, substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt.
- Make sure to slice the cucumbers and radishes thinly to ensure a crisp, refreshing texture.
- Chilling the salad for 15-20 minutes before serving enhances the flavors and crunch.
- Adjust salt carefully as the sour cream adds creaminess but limited saltiness.
