INGREDIENTS:
FOR THE CUCUMBERS
- 1 pound of cucumbers, ends trimmed, quartered lengthwise, seeded
FOR THE YOGURT
- 1 quart of Greek yogurt, strained in cheesecloth for 24 hours
PULLING IT ALL TOGETHER
- 1 bunch of fresh dill
- 1/4 cup EVOO
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
LET’S GET COOKING:
- Strain your Greek yogurt for 24 hours in the refrigerator.
- Wash, end, and quarter your cucumbers lengthwise, then seed with a small spoon.
- Determine your texture. We’re big fans of decent-sized chunks of cucumber. Cut them how you want them.
- Salt your cucumber pieces and mix well. Then, put them into a colander and drain for at least 30 minutes up to 4 hours in the refrigerator. The longer the better.
- In a large bowl, combine the strained yogurt, salted and drained cucumbers, dill, EVOO, and red wine vinegar and mix well.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate for depth and flavor development.
