Steps:
- Wash the cucumber in warm water and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise and remove any seeds. Grate the cucumber, including the peel, then place it into a strainer and squeeze out as much juice as possible to prevent the dip from becoming too thin.
- Add the cream cheese to a bowl and mix until it's smooth-there shouldn't be any lumps.
- Add the grated cucumber, green onions and lemon juice, stir until well combined then season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Transfer the dip into a serving bowl and serve with your favorite crackers or veggies. Enjoy!

I had been wanting to try this recipe, that my friend Linda shared with me. I don't know why I waited so long. It's so good! I made only half the recipe for my wiener roast tonight and am probably going to wish I'd made the full recipe. LOL! Enjoy!

DELICIOUS CUCUMBER DIP
This is a very good dip that I got from a girl I work with. Be sure to dry the cucumbers a lot as when you stir them up it could get watery. ENJOY!

DIP ESSENTIALS: SPRINGTIME CUCUMBER DIP
I played about with this recipe until I achieved the goal of a light Springtime dip for crackers, veggies, or any number of yummy items... You could even use it as a sauce over fish. It has a bright, piquant flavor that goes so well with Springtime. One of my guests said that they could eat it with a spoon. So, you ready......

Steps:
- 1. PREP/PREPARE
- 2. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
- 3. Peel and seed the cucumber, and then grate on the large holes of a grater.
- 4. Place the grated cucumber between paper towels, and press out as much moisture as possible.
- 5. Chef's Note: Alternately, you could place the grated cucumber into a kitchen towel, and squeeze the excess moisture out (that is my preferred method).
- 6. Chef's Tip: If you don't remove the excess moisture from the cucumber, the dip will be too runny.
- 7. Add the cucumber, crème fraiche, mayonnaise, cream cheese, baked garlic, and lemon juice to a food processor fitted with an S-blade.
- 8. Chef's Note: When I used all crème fraiche, the fat content when combined with the cream cheese was a bit much; however, when I just used mayo, the taste was not what I wanted... So, I split the difference... 50% mayo, 50% crème fraiche. It's fun playing about with recipes.
- 9. Give the mixture a few 1-second pulses until the mixture is completely blended and smooth.
- 10. Add the cayenne, paprika, salt and pepper, and then blend and taste.
- 11. Season and blend a few more times, until you achieve the correct proportion of spices.
- 12. Chef's Note: You're the chef... spice it the way you want it.
- 13. Chef's Tip: All the spices you add to this dip will intensify over time. So, keep that in mind when seasoning.
- 14. Remove from the blender, place into a bowl, and then fold in the chopped dill.
- 15. Cover and place in the refrigerator for an hour or two before serving.
- 16. PLATE/PRESENT
- 17. This dip is very versatile... It can be served with various types of crackers or veggies; even drizzled over a nice piece of sautéed fish. Enjoy.
- 18. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
