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.
