Persian Cucumber Yogurt Dip

Mast-o-khiar is much like the well-known greek tzatziki, although made using slightly different ingredients. This version combines the best of both flavors, creating a creamy, cool salad with a flirt of mint on your tongue. I usually make this salad when my CSA delivers the crispest cucumbers at the peak of summer. It will cool you down from the blistering heat. It’s wonderful with grilled vegetables or served on the side with stewed vegetables.
