Pour boiling water over the lemon gelatin and stir until dissolved.

Add unflavored gelatin which has been softened, salt, and white vinegar. Place in refrigerator until gelatin mixture begins to thicken. Beat with electric mixer until gelatin mixture is foamy, 2 to 3 minutes. Fold in, or beat in at low speed with mixer, sour cream and mayonnaise.

Add cucumber and onion, mixing thoroughly. Place in a well greased 2 quart mold and chill until set, about 2 hours.

To unmold place a warm cloth around the mold to loosen it. Garnish with cucumber slices so your guests will not mistake this for a lime dessert mold.
