Instructions

1. Grate the cucumbers using a cheese grater, sprinkle with salt, toss and allow to rest for one minute.
2. Squeeze the cucumbers to remove extra water and place in a medium mixing bowl along with the yogurt, dill and garlic.
3. Stir to combine and serve immediately or refrigerate for up to five days.
4. Note: raw garlic becomes more potent with time, so if you are saving this sauce you may want to reduce the garlic by half.
