Chef notes

To avoid a watery salad, the cucumber should be added to this fresh slaw right before serving. Peel, seed, and cut them, then keep them in a separate container until ready to serve.

Ingredients

1/2 Savoy cabbage (1½ pounds), finely shredded (8 cups)
2/3 cup sour cream
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup packed coarsely chopped fresh dill
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 Kirby cucumbers, peeled, halved, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch pieces (2 cups)

Preparation

Stir together cabbage, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and dill. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours. Stir in cucumbers. Adjust seasoning; serve.
