For Tzatziki

  • Slice cucumber in large pieces and pulse in a food processor until you achieve small chunks.  You could alternately chop in fine pieces with a knife if you prefer. Sprinkle with a little salt and pour onto a plate covered with paper towels to soak up moisture.
  • In a small mixing bowl combine yogurt, lemon juice, dill and garlic. Add cucumber and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
