Salting draws excess water from the cucumbers, allowing the sour cream dressing to cling instead of becoming diluted. Vinegar brightens the rich dairy base, while dill supplies the unmistakably fresh Polish character.
Refrigerate in a covered container for up to 24 hours. The cucumbers will soften and release some liquid over time; stir before serving.
Do not reheat. Serve cold or briefly bring to cool room temperature before serving.
