Tzatziki

I love tzatziki and I love trying new recipes. This one was exceptional with a delicious flavor. I have never added oil or vinegar in any other recipes and maybe that is what made this taste so good. I did cut the recipe in half though and opted out of the dill weed. When we had it I felt it needed a bit of salt and realized I forgot to put it in the mix the night before when I made it. It is amazing how much water is in a cucumber !! Yummy stuff Evelyn, will be making this one again. Made it to go with Dolmas-Grape Leaves Stuffed With Fragrant Rice and Keftedes ( Greek Meatballs) and Greek Antipasto and everything worked out fantastic. Thanks for sharing Evelyn..

This was very nice to use with dinner tonight (Di Neal's Shawarma recipe). I decided to do as chia did, and made two very small small batches of this, one using sour cream and one using thick yogurt...and I found that the yogurt was much more to my liking than the sour cream. :-) This was very tasty and I will make it again. I too enjoyed the addition of the vinegar, and I used dry dill, not fresh, as that was all I had on hand. Thanks for the recipe :-)

This was very good, and I'm sure it will be even better next time, when I actually follow the recipe. I made it with what I had on hand, so didn't have plain Greek yogurt or seedless/English cucumber. With regular yogurt, it was more of a sauce than a dip, but that was fine, since we were using it for chicken souvlaki pita sandwiches anyway. I do love Greek yogurt, so will plan on that for next time, and it is certainly easier to grate a seedless cuke. It's a hassle to seed a regular one. Thanks for the recipe!

Delicious, and incredibly easy! I reduced the olive oil to 1/4 cup, left out the salt and added the fresh dill. I really enjoyed the flavor from the fresh dill so I'll make sure I add it next time too. I used this as a dipping sauce for flipsides pretzel crackers

we love tzatziki with gyros, and your was very nice. i used fresh dill, and i can see this being great on poached salmon as well, since i use sour cream, dill and cucumbers for that, but i think this would be a bit more authentic with greek yogurt, which i also used-- i did 2 batches and preferd the one made with greek yogurt with the gyros but perhaps that is what i am accustomed to. i liked the addition of the vinegar, thanks ev

This was fantastic! We have a local restaurant here in Virginia called Firefly Fare and I have been jealous of their tzatziki for a long time. I have never tried to make it one my own because it tastes so complex but this was so easy! I made it according to the recipe and I wouldn't change a thing. I used it on a pita sandwich for the first time with some veggies, feta, and marinated tofu. Amazing!

Delicious! I used Greek yoghurt and it's the first time I've used vinegar in a Tzatziki but it added a nice little extra tang.

Great recipe! I used a bit less olive oil, and it was just right.

Yummy recipe. I did however drain the liquid from the cucumbers and i reduced the oil to about 2 tbs. But I really loved it.

I made this yesterday to go with your Souvlaki recipe. I did use a smaller cuke than I wanted to-DH has "issues", even with the burpless kind. I added some fresh parsley as well as the dill, and opted for yogurt over sour cream. Loved it!

This recipe was absolutely delicious. I did use a regular cucumber (wow! The water! Who knew?!) and I had some difficulty making a garlic paste. How are you supposed to do that? And I also didn't let it sit (maybe 5 min in fridge) and used it anyway, DELISH!!! I had it with beef and chicken kabobs. So goooood!!! I will never make any other tzatziki sauce ever, ever again. I have been looking for this recipe for a very long time. Thank you!!!

Delicious! Made 1/2 recipe using Greek yogurt; skimped a little on the olive oil and used dried dill. Thank you Ev!

Yep this is the one. This is it: the BEST TZATZIKI EVER :) This is so much better than any other tzatziki sauce I've tried. I used sour cream, 1.5 tsp garlic powder & just a dash of dried dill. YUM perfect, thanks!

Amazing! This is a great Tzatziki recipe, served it last night on Chicken Gyros and using it as a dip today with veggies. I did use plain greek yogurt instead of sour cream and I think thats what made it sooo yummy! :) Thank you!

What a great recipe. Tried it with sour cream once (not so good) and then again with Greek yogurt which was the best! Getting the water out of the cucumber is important so the final product has body and is not thin and watery. Served the Tzatziki with Frizzled Cabbage (83524) and Chicken Souvlaki (30391). This stuff is really really good!
