This sauce is wonderful to serve with falafel or other Greek, Indian, Russian or Armenian dishes. If you prefer a very rich and creamy cucumber sauce, substitute sour cream for the yogurt.

Overall, I thought this sauce was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This sauce was easy to make, but it didn't turn out as I expected. The cucumbers were too watery and the sauce was too thin.

I found this sauce to be a bit bland. I would add some more garlic or herbs to give it more flavor.

This sauce is a bit too tangy for my taste. I would add a little more sugar or honey to balance out the flavors.

I love the combination of flavors in this sauce. The cucumbers are cool and refreshing, the yogurt is tangy and creamy, and the dill adds a nice herbaceous flavor.
