Instructions
  1. Prepare the Infused Oil: In a small saucepan, combine Olive Oil, smashed Garlic, and Rosemary sprig. Heat over low heat for 15-20 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Strain the oil and discard the solids.
  2. Microplane the Cucumber: Using a microplane, finely grate the cucumber. Place in a clean kitchen towel and gently squeeze out any excess moisture.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine all Sauce ingredients. Stir gently to combine, being careful not to overmix.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more lemon juice for tanginess, or Fleur de Sel and White Pepper to taste.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to fully develop.
