How to Make Easy Peasy Tzatziki
- Grate 1 medium cucumber and place in a fine-mesh sieve. Gently salt (1/2 teaspoon) and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
- After 10 minutes, firmly squeeze the cucumber in the sieve to remove as much liquid as possible.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup Greek yogurt, 2 cloves minced garlic, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and the squeezed cucumber.
- Stir well to combine. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste (start with 1/4 teaspoon of each).
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or longer for more intense flavor) to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled and enjoy! Garnish with fresh dill or mint (optional).
