Ukrainian Cold Cucumber & Yoghurt Soup
This is a unique soup. According to some Ukrainian recipes that I found, the soup is often cooked with Oil, Flour, Water and Cucumber Peel, then cooled and combined with diced Cucumber. I made it in an easier way. This is basically a soup version of Tzatziki. It is super easy to make, perfect on a hot day as you don’t need to cook anything, very refreshing, healthy and nutritious.
