After 30 minutes, rinse the cucumbers under running water and dry them completely using a paper towel or tea towel.

Chop the cucumber into small pieces and place them in a bowl.

Add 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt, 1 minced clove of garlic, 1 Tbsp of fresh lemon juice, 1 Tbsp of olive oil, 1 tsp of red wine vinegar, 2 Tbsp of chopped fresh dill, and 1/8 tsp of pepper to the bowl with the cucumber. Mix well until all the ingredients are fully combined.

Store the cucumber yogurt dip in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
