Chef's Notes

Avoid garlic cloves with green sprouts inside—they'll be bitter. Be sure to reach for Greek yogurt to achieve the creamiest texture.

i like this recipe better than the ones with lemon in it.....altho, i just noticed it said "dill".....i used mint, and a lot of it !!! also used a regular cucumber that i de-seed and dry with paper towels before dicing. ( don't like grating, too watery).
