September 28, 2017

Because everyone should have a tzatziki recipe on hand! This one is our go to, and can be whipped up in a pinch!

Classic Tzatziki 

Perfect alongside any Greek dish!

• 2 cucumbers (to make about ½ - ¾ cup grated cucumber after squeezing out juice)
• 1¼ cups plain Greek yoghurt
• 2 tsp white wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp. lemon juice
• 1 tbsp. Well Seasoned EVOO (or more if you want it richer)
• ½ garlic clove, minced
• ½ tsp salt
• Black pepper

1. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise. Use a teaspoon to scrape the watery seeds out. Coarsely grate the cucumber using a box grater. Then wrap in paper towels or a tea towel and squeeze to remove excess liquid.
2. Place cucumber in a bowl. Add remaining ingredients then mix to combine. Set aside for at least 20 minutes for the flavours to bind together
