1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cloves garlic, finely minced

1 tablespoon snipped fresh dill OR 1 teaspoon dried dill

4 cups (1 quart) low-fat yogurt, unflavored

Salt to taste

Dill, cucumber slices, and yogurt for garnish

 

Mix the diced cucumbers and salt in a colander and place in the sink to drain for about 20 minutes.  Mix drained cucumbers, minced garlic, dill, and yogurt in a large bowl and chill for at least one hour.  Taste and add salt, if desired.  If the soup is too thick, dilute with a little cold milk or water.  Spoon into serving bowls, garnish, and serve.
