Sauce
Description
A delicious addition to everyday and festive dishes. Here is a recipe for a wonderful "Satsivi" sauce based on natural yogurt, cucumber, garlic, and fresh herbs. When preparing the vegetables, it's best to peel the cucumber for a more delicate sauce. You can substitute the yogurt with low-fat sour cream. Olive oil can be omitted. Add garlic according to your taste, but be careful not to overdo it. Grated cucumber goes wonderfully with parsley, cilantro, and any other fresh herbs. Season with salt just before serving (if needed). Perfect served with pasta, meat, and vegetables.
