CACIK, TURKISH YOGURT DIP WITH CUCUMBERS AND DILL
There's a wonderful Turkish restaurant I started to frequent, and I tried a dish called cacik. I loved it so much I tried to create a version at home. It's versatile enough to halve or double, and is a great vegetable dip for parties or just to make a little for an afternoon snack with some pitas or crackers. I like this with cucumber slices and warm pitas! The restaurant's recipe used half labne and half plain yogurt, but I used just Greek yogurt and it came out fine. Fresh mint and dill would be optimal though I only had dried on hand. The measurements are guesses since except for the salt, I just eyeballed everything else.

Steps:
- Finely dice the cucumber into many little pieces. A food chopper is good for this.
- Mix everything together in a mixing bowl, then serve. Dip usually lasts about 3-4 days in the fridge, though it doesn't survive long around me if there's fresh cucumbers and yummy pitas!
TURKISH YOGURT AND SPINACH DIP
Known in Turkey as caçik, this garlicky mixture of green vegetables, fresh herbs and yogurt can be served as a salad or as a dip with pita and raw vegetables. Traditionally, caçik is made with a number of vegetables, including cucumbers, cabbage and beets.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, add the spinach and blanch for 10 to 20 seconds. Transfer to the ice water, cool for a minute, then drain and squeeze dry. Chop coarsely.
- Place the garlic in a mortar and pestle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and mash to a paste (alternatively, finely mince). Combine with the lemon juice and olive oil, and let stand for 10 minutes. Stir in the yogurt.
- In a medium bowl, combine the chopped spinach, dill, parsley and mint. Stir in the yogurt and garlic mixture, and the optional scallions. Add freshly ground pepper to taste and more salt if desired. Serve with bread, pita or raw vegetables.
