Hi, I'm Danelle and this is where I dish about my favorite recipes. I focus on simple, family friendly fare and try to make feeding the family a little bit easier for everyone.
1/2 cup seeded, shredded cucumber
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1/2 teaspoon Greek seasoning
Salt and pepper, taste
Directions
Toss the shredded cucumber with 1 teaspoon kosher salt; allow to sit at least 5 minutes. In a medium bowl, mix the yogurt, sour cream, lemon juice, rice vinegar, and olive oil. Season with garlic, fresh dill, and Greek seasoning. Squeeze the cucumber to remove any excess water; stir into sauce. Season to taste with kosher salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Let's Dish
We have a favorite Greek restaurant in town (truthfully, it's about the only Greek restaurant in town) and we love the tzatziki sauce. This comes pretty close to what we get at the restaurant. We like to use it in gyros, but it's also good as a vegetable dip. If you can't find Greek seasoning at your grocery store, or you want to make your own, try this recipe.

We love Tzatziki sauce as well. It is such a great, versatile condiment. I love the idea of adding some rice wine vinegar to it. I also serve it along baked potatoes instead of butter and sour cream and it is delicious :o)
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good... I buy a lot of Tzatziki sauce for my pita chips.
ReplyDeleteI love Tzatziki and all the yummy Greek food that goes with it :)
