  • 1 TBSP fresh lime juice
  • 2 TBSP apple cider vinegar
  • ½ tsp sumac
  • ½ tsp kosher salt

  2. Add the rest of the ingredients, stir to combine, chill for 3-4 hours before serving it with an assortment of your favorite vegetables.
  3. This dip tastes even better when chilled for 24 hours.
  4. The Greek Yogurt Dip may be prepared up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
Both Persian and English cucumbers have very tender skin and don't need to be peeled for this recipe. If you use a different variety cucumber with tougher skin, I would recommend peeling it.

Sumac can be purchased in most Middle Eastern or Mediterranean markets.
