Allergen: contains dairy products. Important: briefly toasting cumin in a dry pan and crushing it noticeably strengthens its aroma compared to using it fresh. Note: if you don't drain the cucumber's water, the sauce can become watery quickly and lose its consistency.
Sprinkling a pinch of ground red pepper over the sauce before serving both brightens its appearance and adds a light spicy note; this presentation, frequently used in Indian cuisine, is a small but effective detail.
