Step 1:
How to make a salad with fresh cucumber, peas and sour cream? Prepare the products. You will need canned peas, choose it of good quality, delicious. Sour cream can be replaced with mayonnaise completely or take sour cream and mayonnaise in a ratio of 1:1. Sour cream must be fresh, natural, of high quality, pleasant to your taste.
Step 2:
Wash fresh cucumbers thoroughly, if necessary, using a brush. Cut off the tips. Cut the cucumbers into small slices and put them in a bowl.
Step 3:
Flip the canned peas on a sieve so that all the liquid runs off. Add it to the bowl with the cucumbers. Mix it up.
Step 4:
Season the salad with sour cream. Add salt. You can add spices to your taste, for example ground black pepper, Svan salt, a little hop-suneli. Salt can be taken not ordinary, but black Indian, then the finished dish will acquire a light and unobtrusive taste of egg. A pinch of turmeric will give a delicate yellow hue.
Step 5:
Rinse fresh dill under running water, shake, chop finely and add to the salad.
Step 6:
Mix the finished salad with fresh cucumber and peas and serve it immediately to the table. It is not recommended to store such a salad for more than two hours, since fresh cucumbers will release juice under the influence of salt and the salad will deteriorate faster. Therefore, count on preparing such a salad for one time. Enjoy your meal!

If you want to add variety to this dish, then try adding a little diced pulp of fresh tomatoes. Canned corn will also decorate the dish, make it more colorful. A special nuance and a bright flavor note will be given by finely chopped smoked suluguni cheese added to the salad. So the dish has a field for experiments: try it, share your variations.

The skin, if it is not rough, not damaged and not bitter, does not need to be cut off.

The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).

Sour cream can be replaced with natural yogurt without additives.
