Norwegian Dilled Cucumber Salad
"This wonderful Taste of Home recipe is quick, easy and surprisingly tasty. Versions of this salad are found all across the colder parts of Europe in one form or another. I prefer the sour cream version over the mayonnaise version."

My family enjoyed this salad. Made for ZWT9 ~ The Apron String Travelers. -
I loved the flavor in this but thought that there was a bit too much sauce. I might try this with yogurt in the future for a lower calorie version -
A very nice way to use cucumbers! I enjoyed the fresh dill and red onion in the salad. Thanks! Made for ZWT 2013. -
I do agree with the previous reviewer, the cream sauce needs to be thinned out, so I did that with a bit more vinegar and it was very good. Made for ZWT9 -
This was a very cool and refreshing salad to eat on a hot summer night. The flavor was excellent. For my personal taste, when making it again, I would decrease the sour cream a bit and add a touch more white wine vinegar to thin the dressing somewhat. Made for Mike and the Appliance Killers ZWT 9.
