Mast-O Khiar Persian Yogurt And Cucumber

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was nice. I liked the green onion in this version. I did thin ours somewhat with water because used Balkan (thick) yogurt and wanted this as a salad along with recipe#397386 on additionally made stuffing. used Sun-maid Thompson raisins, no sour cream as we are corn free! I just added extra yogurt, I did not add any dill as a preference here, I may have used less garlic, and used sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and dried rose petals instead of fresh as it is what I had on hand, plus the rest of the ingredients except for the optional dried rose bud. If I make this again I'd like to use fresh rose petals. Made for VIP of Veggie Swap 33 ~ April 2011.
