Equipment

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup Shredded Cucumber
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 2-3 Tablespoon Fresh Dill
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Prepare the cucumber: Using a box grated, shred an English cucumber until you have 3/4 cup of cucumber. Wrap the grated cucumber in paper towels or cheese cloth and squeeze all of the water from the cucumber. You may need to do this a couple times to get rid of any excess moisture.
    ¾ cup Shredded Cucumber

    1 cup Sour Cream, 2-3 Tablespoon Fresh Dill, 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil, 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice, ¼ teaspoon Salt, ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper
  • Mix: Pulse until everything is mixed.

Notes

How to Store

  • Refrigerator: Store your tzatziki in an airtight container in the fridge. It’ll stay fresh for up to 4 days — just give it a quick stir before serving.
  • Freezer: I don’t recommend freezing tzatziki. The sour cream tends to separate once thawed, and the texture gets watery.
