Cucumber and dill is always a pleasant combination. When I made this the first time I didn't know what to expect. It has a nice crisp taste and is good on fresh salads.

1 6 inch piece seedless cucumber, peeled
1 clove garlic (use a small clove)
3/4 c mayonnaise

1 tsp dry mustard
2 Tbsp fresh dill, chopped or 1 tbsp dry
salt to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Puree cucumber and garlic in food processor. Place puree in a fine mesh strainer, press down gently with a spoon and let drain. (Cucumbers are largely water, so if they are not well drained, the dressing will be too thin)

  • 3. Add pureed cucumber and garlic. Mix together. If too thick, thin with a little water, a teaspoon at a time. Refrigerate for an hour (or longer) before serving.
