Method
- Grate the cucumber and squeeze out excess water using a clean kitchen towel.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated cucumber, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
- Mix well and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld.
Notes
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. It should remain fresh for up to 3 days.
- Freezing: Freezing is not recommended as the texture of the yogurt will change once thawed.
- Pairing: This tzatziki pairs wonderfully with grilled chicken, lamb, or as a refreshing dip for vegetables.
- Variations: Feel free to experiment by adding mint or a dash of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve with pita bread, as part of a mezze platter, or on a salad for added creaminess.
