Mizerja - Polish Cucumber Salad

My family's recipe for mizerja. My parents use sour cream, but I use Greek yogurt. This is an easy-to-make side dish that pairs well with many things. I've always liked it served alongside burgers for some reason.

• Ready In: 1 hr 10 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 2  English cucumbers, peeled and very thinly sliced
• 1  teaspoon kosher salt
• 1⁄4 cup  Greek yogurt or 1⁄4 cup sour cream
• 1  tablespoon vinegar
• 1 -2  tablespoon sugar (to taste)
• 1  pinch fresh ground black pepper

Directions

1. Place sliced cucumbers in a strainer and sprinkle with Kosher salt. Mix lightly, then let the cucumbers drain off their liquid for an hour. After that, you can squeeze a bit more liquid from the cucumbers with the back of a spoon. Discard all excess liquid.
2. In a salad bowl, whisk together the yogurt/sour cream, vinegar, sugar and black pepper. Add the cucumbers and toss to combine. Serve, or let sit in the fridge for up to a day.
