About this recipe

Yogurt cucumber salad is incredibly simple to make, requiring only 4 simple ingredients. The combination of cucumber and yogurt is creamy and refreshing. The test here is to perfect the balance of all the ingredients.

This salad takes only five to ten minutes to prepare and pairs well with endless dishes such as meat, rice, and legumes. I love mine on its own as a snack during warm summer days.

This may sound similar to the popular Greek tzatziki dip but I believe it’s different. If you love yogurt, you won’t get enough of this.

That’s me at the age of 32 with Merlin, who worked closely with Palestinian families. Together, we were so excited about the project. After that unforgettable visit with Auntie Suad, I was filled with excitement about the project. The women I met were inspiring, and together we had even come up with a name for the cookbook: Taste of Palestine. 🥰🇵🇸 It was a name that captured the heart of what we wanted to share—stories, recipes, and traditions tied to the land and its people.

But for many reasons, the project didn’t go ahead. At the time, I wasn’t prepared for the reality that not everyone would understand or support what I was doing. There were people who gossiped, joked, and made me question myself. Looking back now, I see that they were the minority, but their words had a way of making me doubt myself 🥺

if this happened now—I would not have let anything stop me. This was for a good cause, but I also believe that everything happens for a reason. The project was meant to be set aside, and I needed to focus on my boys, who were still young.
A couple of years later, we received the heartbreaking news of Auntie Suad’s passing 🥲🙏🏽It felt as though a part of the story had been left unfinished. A few weeks later, something arrived in the mail that would bring me to tears 😭 There’s more 🤗
