learn how to make easy tzatziki from scratch

Easy Tzatziki


Description

When it comes to serving your homemade tzatziki, many options are available. It’s delicious when paired with falafel wraps or as a Greek salad platter. It also makes an excellent dip for pita chips or vegetable crudités such as carrots and celery sticks. If you’re feeling creative, you could use it as a replacement for mayonnaise in sandwiches or burgers!


Ingredients

Units Scale

1 English cucumber (unpeeled)

1 1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt (or use dairy free)

12 cloves of garlic, minced

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tbsp white wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

12 teaspoons minced fresh dill


Instructions

Shred the cucumber and squeeze the liquid into a thick paper towel or kitchen towel.

Mix all the ingredients except the dill.

Let sit for at least about an hour; add the dill, and mix.

Notes

Start with 1 clove of garlic and add more if you like the sharp flavor of the garlic.

I use a garlic press or a microplane, to get the perfect consistency of minced garlic.

For dairy-free options: You can use dairy-free plain Greek yogurt.

For candida-free options:  You can use dairy-free plain almond milk Greek yogurt.
