AUTHENTIC GREEK TZATZIKI



Authentic Greek Tzatziki image

This is a lovely, cool, refreshing Greek tzatziki dip that I first tasted and fell in love with in the Greek Islands. It is lovely with hot toasted pita bread and veggies or lamb kebabs! The key is strain the liquid from the cucumber very well so the dip stays creamy and not watery and to always use thick, full-fat Greek yogurt. Low-fat versions won't cut it. Enjoy!

4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 large cucumber
salt to taste
1 (17.6 ounce) container full fat plain Greek yogurt (such as FAGE Total®)

Steps:

TZATZIKI SAUCE-- GREEK CUCUMBER/YOGURT SAUCE



Tzatziki Sauce-- Greek Cucumber/Yogurt Sauce image

This is the cool and creamy sauce that usually is served as a condiment on Greek Gyro sandwiches. The recipe calls for the thicker, Greek Yogurt, also called, "Greek Cheese". If you can't find this type of yogurt, you can use plain, regular yogurt from the grocery store. But in order to get the sauce to the desired thicker consistency, you need to suspend the yogurt in a cheesecloth for a couple of hours to drain some of the water off. If you don't mind it moderately runny, you can just make it as is and it is still delicious, just a little more messy. Make this with Recipezaar recipe #285900, Gyros- An Authentic Recipe For Making Them At Home Enjoy!

Provided by Miracle Miriam

Categories     Sauces

Time 3h

Yield 3 1/2 Cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups Greek yogurt (also called Yogurt Cheese, see below for alternative)
3 tablespoons lemon juice (or juice of one lemon)
1 garlic clove, minced
1 large English cucumber, diced (the long, skinny ones)
1 tablespoon salt (for salting cucumbers)
1 tablespoon fresh dill (or both, depending on preference) or 1 tablespoon of fresh mint, chopped (or both, depending on preference)
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Peel cucumbers and dice. Put them in a colander and sprinkle with the tablespoon of salt (draws water out). Cover with a plate and sit something heavy on top. Let sit for 30 minute Drain well and wipe dry with a paper towel.
  • In food processor or blender, add cucumbers, garlic, lemon juice, dill and/or mint, and a few grinds of black pepper. Process until well blended, then stir into yogurt. Taste before adding any extra salt, then salt if needed. Place in refrigerator for at least two hours before serving so flavors can blend.
  • This will keep for a few days in the refrigerator, but you will need to drain off any water and stir each time you use it.
  • ** If you can't find the thicker Greek Yogurt Cheese, you can use regular, plain yogurt that is either full fat or low fat. To thicken, spoon yogurt into cheese cloth that has been quadrupled. Draw the corners of the cloth up and tie together. Suspend above a bowl for 2 hours so that water can drip out. The consistency of the yogurt should be like that of sour cream.
  • You can skip this draining process, if you want, but you will have a moderately messier, runnier result.

GREEK YOGURT-CUCUMBER SAUCE - GERMAN TSATSIKI



Greek Yogurt-Cucumber Sauce - German Tsatsiki image

A yogurt-cucumber sauce with lots of garlic and olive oil is a traditional Greek tzatziki recipe which is often made and served in Germany.

Provided by Jennifer McGavin

Categories     Appetizer     Dinner     Lunch     Sauce

Time 20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup Greek yogurt
1 cup shredded cucumber, from about 1/2 a cucumber)
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Fresh dill, for garnish

Steps:

  • If you do not have Greek yogurt (very thick yogurt), line a colander with paper towels and place plain yogurt into it. Cover with more paper towels to drain excess liquid for 15 minutes or longer.
  • Shred half a cucumber, place in a colander, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste and let sit for 15 minutes. Press excess liquid out.
  • In a small bowl, mix together 1 cup Greek yogurt or yogurt cheese, shredded and pressed cucumber, 2 minced cloves garlic, 1 teaspoon lemon juice and 2 teaspoons olive oil. Refrigerate until ready to serve. The longer it sits, the more the garlic melds with the other ingredients. If the sauce looks runny, stir the liquid back in.
