My mom always served this sweet-tart cucumber recipe with her Hungarian Chicken Paprika. The sauce is creamy and the cucumbers have a nice crunch. —Pamela Eaton, Monclova, Ohio

I have had a similar recipe from my Granny. In her recipe you salt the sliced cukes liberally and let drain in a colandar for at least 30 minutes. Drain and RINSE well. No need to add more salt! I slice my cukes in a food processor so they are very thin. That is the secret to this recipe. Great with BBQ.

My mother made this and now I have made it, for years, for my family. I haven't ever added the vinigar to it though. It's a very good salad with garden fresh cucumbers and I have even added tomatoes to it.

I have been making this for years, but I use some fat free Italian dressing instead of so much vinegar and sugar.

I make this without the vinegar nd sugar. Just sour cream, salt and pepper, pickling cucumbers if available and red onion. Always a favorite - especially the next day.

I always use English Cukes as they do not leave that bitter taste. also sometimes I omit the sour cream, using the vingear. turns out a bit different but still good.

I always use tarragon for the spice. It gives it a wonderful taste.

I did like this salad. I loved the dill idea and added some. Just a hint on taking the bitterness out of a cucumber. slice one end off the cucumber rub the end and cucumber until a frothy foam apears. Do the same to the other end. Rinse off and your cucumbers are not bitter. I just don't like adding the extra salt.
