What's your favorite dipping food for tzatziki? Mine is chicken souvlaki, but I love tzatziki with most foods!
Shawarma. And any grilled kabobs, lula. With pickled turnips.😃
Hot!
No dill?
LOVE your show!
Can’t wait to try this out! 😋
I'm sorry but where are the amounts of each ingredient you put in??
delishhhh. where did you buy the wooden container where you keep your salt please
Made this tonight to go with chicken gyro bowls. It's so flavorful.
You're cooking mediterranean dishes and you have not even only one turkish recipe on your YouTube channel! unbelievable.
YUMMY! 🙂
I make this over and over again. We LOVE it! I add dill though…….
Looks amazing
Love your cabinets and countertops here, such rich colors! Thanks so much for this simple gem of a recipe!
So I am assuming we use Greek yogurt for this or is regular fine ?
Edit:
Nvm I saw your recipe ! Can’t wait to make
Excellent recipe!
How long will this keep?
Shouldn't you wear gloves? And (salt) is very bad for us with high blood pressure. Salt is a preservative, not a true seasoning ingredient. But the real bad stuff you didn't put, yippee.
Only strained greek yogurt to be used
My family always put dill. Of course yours is fine, it’s just gives it a pleasant aroma
Anybody dip pizza
So it's not authentic.
Very good recipe! I added some fresh dill and lemon juice to mine and it was awesome. Thanks so much for your recipes they are all yummy! 😋
what are the measurements though???
This was absolutely outstanding, Suzy, very authentic. I spent two months backpacking through the Greek Islands in the mid-1980s, including Paros, where your website says this recipe is from. It was during Greek Orthodox Easter and everywhere you went, like in a pensione, they had bowls of hardboiled eggs dyed red and rolls for you to help yourself. When you sat down in a family owned restaurant they would usually bring you a bowl of tzatziki and bread before you even ordered. Lots of small variations. Some had dill, some had chopped onion, some kalamata olives, some dusted with freshly cracked pepper. All were great, like your recipe. Thank you so much! I had your tzatziki with your gyros recipe. Made it the morning and by afternoon it was bursting with flavor!
This is not a traditional tzatziki sauce. Good try though
Definitely would add dill and lemon juice
Where dill?
