I learned a version when I worked in a Greek restaurant. Mainly for garlic lovers!

First, crush several cloves of garlic with some sea salt or kosher salt. You can use a mortar and pestle if you have one, or I just use the bottom of empty glass spice jar to crush it up. The garlic and salt will form a thick paste.

Then mix in a cup or more of sour cream into the garlic/salt mixture.

Finally, finely dice some peeled cucumbers and add to the sour cream mixture. Blend well, tastes better if you chill in the fridge for a while or overnight.

A nice touch is some fresh mint leaves (either mixed in or as a garnish), adds a great flavor!
