How to Make Easy Tzatziki Sauce
- Grate the cucumber and place it in a fine-mesh sieve. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and let sit for 10 minutes to remove excess moisture. Squeeze out any remaining liquid.
- In a medium bowl, combine the grated cucumber, 1 cup Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill, 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint, 2 cloves minced garlic, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Stir well to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more salt, lemon juice, or herbs to your preference.
- Refrigerate in an airtight container for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Even better if chilled for up to 2 days!
