Instructions
Grate the cucumber using the large holes of a grater.
Place grated cucumber in a colander in the sink. Add a pinch of salt and one tablespoon of vinegar. Let it rest for 15 minutes to release its liquids.
Lightly whisk the yogurt with a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil to develop a creamy texture.
Add the minced garlic clove, two tablespoons of red wine vinegar, and three tablespoons of olive oil to a bowl and mix well.
Squeeze the grated cucumber with the help of a kitchen towel to release the remaining liquid.
Add it to the bowl with the olive oil and vinegar and mix well.
Pour the yogurt into the bowl with the remaining ingredients and mix with a spoon.
Stir in most of the dill. Season with sea salt and plenty of freshly ground pepper to taste. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours before serving.
