This is a really simple Turkish cucumber and yogurt soup that only takes a few minutes to make. The technique couldn’t be easier, you’re basically blending a salad into a refreshing cold soup. I keep jars of this stuff in the fridge all summer long, it’s the perfect healthy snack, appetizer or sauce for cold poached salmon.

  4. There is no such soup in Turkish cuisine, as was commented by other viewers. There is a similar appetizer that has a thick consistency. But in Bulgaria, the soup is called TARATOR and is a national summer dish that is eaten in every house. Cut the cucumber without the peel into small cubes, then add salt, pressed garlic, dill, oil and yogurt diluted with water and, if desired, a little wine vinegar. Served with crushed walnuts. This is the classic Bulgarian recipe.
    I am your admirer from Bulgaria and I watch your TV shows with great pleasure. Thanks!
