Tzatziki Sauce
Tzatziki Sauce
(Makes 1¼ cups)


2 cloves garlic
1 cup Greek whole milk yogurt
1 tblsp lemon juice
⅓ large English cucumber
¾ tblsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp mint or dill (or both)
Salt & Pepper to taste


NOTES:
 

Peel and then dice the cucumber, sprinkle salt on it and leave in a colander, place a weighted plate on top of the cucumber to help drain the liquid. Dry the cucumber with a paper towel.

In a food processor, add the garlic, run the processor, then add lemon juice and while running the processor drizzle the olive oil in slowly. Mix with the herbs, S&P and cucumber, stir all into the yogurt. Let sit in the refrigerator for a few hours so the flavors can merge together.

Enjoy!
