    List of Ingredients




    1 quart plain yoghurt
    4 cloves garlic
    olive oil
    1 tbsp white vinegar
    2 cucumbers

    Drain yoghurt. I do this by lining a strainer with cheesecloth
    and suspending it over a bowl for about 1 hour. Coffee filters
    work as well as cheesecloth.

    Peel and seed cucumbers. Grate them, or mince in a food processor.
    Salt them and drain for 30 minutes (same as yoghurt: put them in
    cheesecloth lined strainer). Squeeze out any excess liquid.

    In a medium bowl place crushed garlic. Whisk in olive oil till
    you have a thick paste, i think I use about 2-3 tbsp. Whisk in
    the vinegar. Mix in the yoghurt and cucumber. Refrigerate for at
    least an hour so flavors will meld.
