How to Make Creamy Dill Cucumber Dip
- Start by grating or finely dicing the cucumber. Remember to squeeze out any excess moisture to ensure your dip stays thick and creamy.
- In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, and minced garlic. Whisk until smooth and well-blended, adding more olive oil if you prefer extra creaminess.
- Gently fold in the finely chopped fresh dill, stirring carefully to preserve color and freshness.
- Add salt and pepper to your liking, whisking for about 10 seconds to enhance flavors.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. The flavors will deepen over time.
