Fresh Tzatzaki Sauce

Ingredients:

• 3 cups Greek yogurt
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• juice of 1 lemon (3 tbsp)
• 2 medium cucumbers, seeded and diced
• 1 tbsp kosher salt (for salting cucumbers)
• 1 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
• Kosher salt and black pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Peel cucumbers and slice lengthwise. Take a spoon and scoop seeds out of the middle (it should look like a little boat when you're through).
2. Cut cucumbers into 1/4" slices and place in colander.
3. Sprinkle 1 tbsp kosher salt over cucumbers and let stand for at least 30 minutes (to draw out the water).
4. Drain and wipe cucumbers with a paper towel.
5. In a food processor, place cucumbers, garlic, lemon juice, dill, and black pepper. Process until well blended.
6. Blend mixture into Greek yogurt. 
7. Place into refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
