Tips for Success:
- Choose the Right Cucumbers: English or Persian cucumbers work best because they have fewer seeds and a crisp texture. If using regular cucumbers, consider peeling them partially or removing the seeds to prevent excess moisture.
- Adjust Creaminess: For a richer version, use a mix of Greek yogurt and a tablespoon of light sour cream.
- Add Extras: Boost flavor by adding a pinch of garlic powder, a dash of cayenne pepper, or a handful of chopped fresh parsley.
- Low-Sodium Option: Skip adding extra salt if you’re watching your sodium intake—the yogurt and natural cucumber flavors are plenty satisfying.
