Zutaten für das traditionelle griechische Tzatziki-Rezept
-

Instructions:
1. Prep the Cucumber: Peel the cucumber and grate it finely. Place the grated cucumber in a sieve, add a pinch of salt, and let it drain for about 15 minutes. Afterward, squeeze out any excess water to keep your tzatziki nice and thick!
2. Mix It All Together: In a bowl, combine the strained yogurt, minced garlic, dill (if using), extra virgin olive oil, and vinegar. Add the well-drained cucumber and stir everything together until smooth.
3. Chill and Serve: For the best texture and flavor, refrigerate the tzatziki for at least 2 hours, or overnight if possible. This will help the flavors meld together perfectly. Serve chilled with pita, fresh veggies, or as a side to grilled meats!
👌 Profi-Tipp:
Want a lighter version of tzatziki? Keep the rich flavor by using 2% fat yogurt, but don’t skimp on the extra virgin olive oil – it’s key to that authentic Mediterranean taste!
