Mother made a very similar salad, with a green onion and no vinegar. I like the extra tang that the vinegar adds. This is a nice alternative for when I don't have any buttermilk to thin the sour cream a bit. I ended up using fresh thyme, as my dill had gone bad, but otherwise made it as is, just cut down the amount to a single tomato, etc.

Yummy goodness. Perfect recipe for the summer. I love sour cream-based cucumber salads and really enjoyed the added touch of the tomato. I chose to not add the oil. Thank you for a great, fresh recipe!
