by member: jeminums  Cool Cucumber and Yogurt Salad
A wonderful Middle Eastern side.
Ingredients
Directions
- Place the yogurt in a cheese cloth or dish towel.
- Gather all sides and squeeze some of the water out of the yogurt into the sink. (Cucumber releases water into the yogurt).
- Place yogurt in a bowl. Add cucumber, onion (optional), dill, mint and salt to taste.
- Stir and serve.
- Note: great with kabobs or by itself. Better if refrigerated for at least 30 minutes. If you opt for fresh herbs then it's fine served right away.
