Peel and grate the cucumber. Immediately squeeze out the liquid and season the grated cucumber generously with salt. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the crushed garlic, quark, crème fraîche, sour cream, yogurt, and dill and stir well. Season to taste with pepper, lemon juice, and oregano, if desired. Once the salted cucumber has marinated thoroughly, stir it in and season with more salt if desired. The finished tzatziki tastes best when it sits for several hours, preferably a day or overnight.
