Zubereitung von Tzatziki Homemade
- Line a fine-mesh sieve with cheesecloth and place it over a bowl. Add 2 cups of Greek yogurt and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until 1 cup of whey has drained.
- While the yogurt is draining, prepare the remaining ingredients: finely dice 1 medium cucumber (about 1 cup, after peeling, seeding and dicing), mince 4-6 cloves garlic (depending on preference), and zest 1 lemon.
- In a medium bowl, combine the drained yogurt, diced cucumber, 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice (plus the zest), minced garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Stir gently to combine, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving to allow the flavors to fully develop. The longer it chills, the better it tastes!
- Serve chilled with your favorite crudités, pita bread, or as a topping for grilled meats.
