- 1/2 English cucumber, peeled
- 16 oz (2 cups) cold plain Greek yogurt (either full fat or fat free will work)
- 2-3 tsp garlic, minced
- 1/3 cup chopped dill, fresh or frozen
- 1 1/2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice (Juice of 1/2 lemon; please squeeze a real lemon)
- 1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- Peel and finely diced the cucumber and strain of it’s juices. I squeezed it really tight by the fistful. Getting rid of excess juice is important so that you tzatziki sauce isn’t watery the next day.
- Combine the strained and chopped cucumber with Greek yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, dill, salt (add more to taste) and pepper.
- Mix everything together and add more salt to taste if needed. It’s best to refrigerate for about 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld. It tastes even better after refrigerating overnight!
