Recipe

Imagine yourself beside a blue-and-white cottage in Santorini, with the Aegean breeze brushing your face. On the table sits a plate of fresh cucumber-yogurt dip that instantly cools you down on hot summer days. The secret to this refreshing treat starts with perfectly dehydrated cucumbers—made easy with the Geedel vegetable chopper!

Ingredients

1 crisp cucumber (peeled)

1 cup thick Greek yogurt

1 garlic clove

1 tbsp fresh dill

extra virgin olive oil

sea salt 

Detailed Instructions

1.Chop & dehydrate (core step)

Peel the cucumber and cut into large chunks. Place them into the Geedel vegetable chopper container, secure the lid, and turn the handle to chop the cucumber.

Key step: Empty the container, then attach the mesh rotary spin basket. Pour all chopped cucumber into the spin basket, lock the dedicated transparent lid tightly. Hold the handle and spin rapidly continuously—you’ll see cucumber moisture being thrown out through the mesh by centrifugal force, collecting at the bottom of the container. Keep spinning for about 1 minute until no more moisture is released.

2.Prep flavor elements

Use the chopper’s chopping blade to quickly mince the garlic with a few spins. Chop the fresh dill slightly (also with the same chopper).

3.Final combination

Switch to the mixing paddle. Add Greek yogurt, dehydrated cucumber, minced garlic, and chopped dill into the manual food chopper container. Sprinkle with sea salt and drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil. Secure the lid and turn the handle at a steady pace for about 20 seconds until all ingredients are perfectly blended.

4.Chill to enhance flavor

4. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Summary

This dip proves that great dishes come from attention to detail. The Geedel food chopper’s unique all-in-one process—chop → spin dry → mix—especially its efficient spin-dry function, solves the core problem of excess moisture in such dips. Now you can easily recreate the refreshing flavor of Mediterranean restaurants at home!
