Instructions

Cook rotini pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Rinse with cold water and drain.
Halve the cucumber lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Slice into thin pieces and set aside.
Slice the onion thinly and soak it in a bowl with cold water for a while to reduce flavor intensity.
In a separate bowl, mix the sour cream, mayonnaise, sugar, salt, dill, and white vinegar until well combined.
In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients, mixing gently. Refrigerate for 45 minutes before serving.

Notes

Ensure the pasta is cooled completely before mixing them to maintain texture.
This salad can be made a day ahead for better flavor infusion.
Feel free to customize with your favorite veggies or herbs.
