Making Creamy Cucumber Salad is straightforward when you follow these easy steps:

1. Wash and Slice Cucumbers: Begin by washing the cucumbers thoroughly. Slice them thinly using a sharp knife or a mandoline for uniform pieces.
2. Prepare the Dressing: In a medium mixing bowl, combine sour cream (or Greek yogurt), mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, garlic powder, and dill. Mix until smooth and well-blended.
3. Season the Dressing: Add salt and pepper to taste. Adjust according to your preference for seasoning.
4. Combine Salad and Dressing: In a large bowl, add the sliced cucumbers. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and gently toss until they are well coated.
5. Chill the Salad: For best results, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together and enhances the overall taste.
6. Serve: After chilling, give the salad one last stir and adjust seasoning if necessary.

By following these steps, you’ll create a vibrant and creamy cucumber salad that’s ready to impress.
