4 cups fresh unflavored yogurt
1 medium cucumber -- peeled and coarsely grated
4 cloves garlic -- crushed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed (not fresh)
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
additional olive oil for garnish

1. Place a piece of cheesecloth in a colander and pour in the yogurt. Allow the yogurt to drain for several hours.

2. Place the grated cucumber in another colander and allow to drain for two hours.

3. Mix together all ingredients except the additional olive oil and chill. Place in serving dishes or platter and drizzle additional olive oil on top. Serve as a spread for pita and flatbreads or anything else you care to dip in it.
