I thought this all tasted like a whole lot of nothing. It wasn't terrible but I will not be making it again.

I worked in a restaurant that made this sauce fresh everyday. The part that is left out so you dont get a watery sauce is
first: drain off the moister thats in yogurt for a couple hours. (coffee filters work fine for this
Second: scrape out the seeds in the cucumbers, dice them up then salt them a little bit and wait about 30-60 mins for the moister to be pulled out. Shake off salt Then mix together. Without the Cumin imo. Oh and it needs to rest in the fridge for awhile.
Hope this helps a few with being to watery

I made this tomatillo sauce to serve with tri-tip tacos. It was amazing. All of my guests, even my 10-yr-old daughter, loved it!
