Notes

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips:
  • Be sure to use fresh herbs for this recipe - they are the key ingredient to the fresh bright flavor.
  • English cucumbers have a thin skin that is sweeter than a standard variety cucumber so be sure to leave the skin on when you cut them.
  • Go easy on the fresh garlic. Start by using a small half clove. Taste and add the other half it desired.
  • If you don't have a blender, you can use a food processor or an immersion blender.
