Devour!
Those cucumbers are so green. I wonder if they’re a different variety. Great recipe. My wife hates cucumbers raw, but loves this type of dip.
I believe they’re called Lebenese Cucumbers
My fave.
I love cucumbers, and the little short fat ones we get in Spain are great with this recipe. I also like it with a pinch of cumin! Great photos by the way.
This is one of my favorite things to make
So refreshing! Nice idea to add a carrot to the mix. I add a little bit of ground cumin as well.
This recipe looks decidedly refreshing and delicious; THIS is my favourite!
