This sauce is wonderful to serve with falafel or other Greek, Indian, Russian or Armenian dishes. If you prefer a very rich and creamy cucumber sauce, substitute sour cream for the yogurt.

This sauce is a great way to use up extra cucumbers. I always have a few cukes in my fridge and this is a great way to use them up before they go bad.
