Description
A tasty late summer salad.

Ingredients

 * 3-4 Tomatoes
 * 2-3 Cucumbers
 * 1/2 cup Green onions or chives
 * 2 Tbsp fresh Dill
 * 3/4 cup Sour Cream (OPTIONAL)
 * Sea salt to taste
 * White or Black pepper to taste

Directions

 * 1) Quarter the tomatoes lighty salt to bring out the flavor.
 * 2) Cut the cucumbers in half, remove the seeds, then slice into 1/4 inch wide pieces(crescent moon shaped).
 * 3) Add sour cream. (OPTIONAL)
 * 4) Add green onions/chives to taste.
 * 5) Add dill to taste.
 * 6) Add salt to taste
 * 7) Add white pepper to taste.
 * 8) Stir or fold gently to avoid breaking up the tomatoes
 * 9) Chill in fridge for 10 minutes
 * 10) Serve; sometimes a tiny bit more salt brings out the flavors
 * 11) Variations: I like to use heirloom tomatoes for their depth of flavor, English cucumbers for their bold flavors, all natural sour cream, and sometimes parsley instead of dill. Try with a thin slice of Latvian sour dough or rye bread.The ratio of ingredients can be adjusted any way you like. I tend to eyeball it.
