Description

This is not your average salad. It’s cold, creamy, tangy, and smells like garlic met a garden. Grandma served this as a side, but let’s be real – we all secretly treated it like the main dish when the meat ran out. It cools you down, wakes you up, and somehow disappears from the bowl faster than you expected.

Advice

If your cucumbers are watery, salt them lightly first and let them sit for 10 min. Then drain – your salad will be creamier, not soggy.
