Cucumber Salad with Blue Cheese
This is a great way of jazzing up a cucumber salad. Crumbled blue cheese adds a burst of flavour that complements the cucumber very well.
Ingredients
Serves: 4
- 2 large cucumbers, peeled and sliced in half lengthways
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup white onion, minced
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 pinch white pepper, or to taste
- 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

- With a spoon, scoop out the seeds from the cucumber halves. Slice the cucumbers into thick half moons and place the slices on a plate on paper towels. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of salt over the cucumber slices and set aside.
- Place the onion, sour cream, white wine vinegar, dill, sugar and white pepper in a bowl, and mix until well combined. Lightly stir in the blue cheese. Pat the cucumber slices dry with paper towels and gently mix them into the salad. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving; season to taste with salt just before serving.

Made this for the first time today. Very easy, and very tasty!! Used black pepper instead of white, and added more blue cheese than called for. - 06 Sep 2010 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
You gotta like bleu cheese to like these cucumbers. I made a half a recipe because I'm the only one in this house who likes it! These cucumbers and onions are very good, but, boy do they have a bite to them. Next time I'm going to cut back on the bleu cheese just a little. Thanks for sharing a different type of creamed cucumbers. - 19 Jul 2011 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
