Prepare the Cucumbers. Peel the cucumbers, cut them in half lengthwise, and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Finely mince the cucumber.
2 English Cucumbers
Finely mince the Vidalia onion.
2 Teaspoons Vidalia Onion
Place both in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze firmly to remove as much liquid as possible. This step keeps the dip thick and creamy instead of watery. Save a little of the cucumber juice in case you need to thin the dip later.
Mix the Cream Cheese. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Mix in the dried dill, garlic powder, salt, and hot pepper sauce until evenly combined.
Fold Everything Together. Stir in the cucumber and onion mixture until well incorporated.
If the dip seems too thick, stir in the reserved cucumber liquid one teaspoon at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
Chill and Serve. Serve immediately or refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour. Chilling allows the flavors to blend together and makes the dip even more delicious.
