    Tzatziki is traditionally served as an appetizer and can be left on the table as an accompaniment to foods throughout the meal. The key to great tzatziki is the thick creamy texture that allows it to be eaten alone, as a dip, as a spread, and as a condiment.

    Ingredients

    • 16 ounces (2 cups) of thick Greek yogurt
    • 4 to 10 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
    • 1/2 cup of diced or grated cucumber (Kirby or "English")
    • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
    • 2 teaspoons of lemon juice

    Directions

    1. Prepare all ingredients in advance. Combine oil and lemon juice in a medium mixing bowl. Fold the yogurt in slowly, making sure it mixes completely with the oil. Add the garlic, according to taste, and the cucumber. Stir until evenly distributed. Garnish with a bit of green and serve well chilled.
