Steps:
- Quarter the cucumber pieces and place in a mixing bowl. Add the onions and season with salt. Mix to combine as you prepare the rest of the salad. This will start to draw out moisture, which will help thin out the dressing.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sour cream, vinegar, olive oil, hot sauce and garlic. Add the dill and season with salt and pepper. Pour over the cucumbers and onions and mix to combine. Let sit in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Serve!
CUCUMBER YOGURT DIP
I can not get enough of this recipe for this cucumber-yogurt dip/sauce. Works well on roasted meats, in wraps, on rice, as a dip with vegetables or pita (or just baguette) on a spoon.... I used it on my curried chicken and rice recipe and it added a little coolness to the spices.

Steps:
- to drain the yogurt, line a mesh colandar with cheesecloth or a coffee filter and hang over a bowl. Let the yogurt drain at least an hour or two, but no big deal if it is easier for you the night before. If that is the case, make sure to cover the top and leave it in the fridge.
- This can be skipped if you can get your hands on real Greek yogurt, which is thicker than most commerical brands.
- Place the now thickened yorgurt to a bowl and add the other ingredients. Best if it sits for a bit to let the flavors combine, but with me, it is likely that it will get eaten long before.
- You may keep leftovers in the fridge, but I find the raw garlic can get a bit intense upon sitting. Not that that is a bad thing, but consider yourself warned.

Tips:
- Choose the right cucumbers: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh, firm cucumbers that are not too watery. English cucumbers are a good choice for this recipe.
- Chill the yogurt before using: This will help to make the dip extra refreshing and flavorful.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh dill and chives add a bright, herbaceous flavor to the dip. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less since they are more concentrated.
- Don't over-salt the dip: The yogurt and dill already provide a lot of flavor, so you don't need to add too much salt. Taste the dip before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Serve the dip with your favorite dippers: Cucumber dill yogurt dip is a great accompaniment to fresh vegetables, crackers, pita bread, or chips.
Conclusion:
Cucumber dill yogurt dip is a refreshing, flavorful, and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for summer gatherings or potlucks, and it's also a healthy and delicious way to enjoy fresh cucumbers. With just a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of your time, you can have a delicious dip that everyone will love.
