Mizeria
Mizeria () is a salad which originated in Poland and consists of thinly sliced or grated cucumbers, often with sweet sour cream or kefir and vinegar, although in some cases oil. Other possible ingredients include onions, pepper or lemon juice, sugar, dill, chives, mint or parsley. The dish is usually served alongside a main course and is one of the most popular salads in Poland. The name of the salad comes from the French word ''misère'' (poverty, squalor) and most likely expresses the disdainful attitude of the Polish aristocracy towards this traditional peasant dish. Mizeria is also customarily made in the Hungarian-American community in Toledo, Ohio.

Condiments called '' salad dressings'', which exist in a variety of flavors, are usually used to make a salad.

Other types of salad include bean salad, tuna salad, bread salads (such as fattoush, panzanella), vegetable salads without leafy greens (such as Greek salad, potato salad, coleslaw), rice-, pasta- and noodle-based salads, fruit salads and dessert salads.

Sour cream (sometimes known as soured cream in British English) is a dairy product obtained by fermenting regular cream with certain kinds of lactic acid bacteria. The bacterial culture, which is introduced either deliberately or naturally, sours and thickens the cream. Its name comes from the production of lactic acid by bacterial fermentation, which is called souring. Crème fraîche is one type of sour cream with a high fat content and less sour taste. Traditional Traditionally, sour cream was made by letting cream that was skimmed off the top of milk ferment at a moderate temperature.
