About Cucumber yoghurt

Cucumber Yoghurt, often referred to as "raita" or "tzatziki" depending on its culinary origin, is a creamy, refreshing dish found in Indian, Greek, and Middle Eastern cuisines. Made by combining natural yoghurt with finely chopped or grated cucumber, it may also include ingredients like garlic, mint, dill, olive oil, lemon juice, or spices. This nutritious side dish is low in calories and rich in probiotics, promoting gut health and aiding digestion. Packed with hydration from cucumbers and protein from yoghurt, it can be a healthy addition to meals. However, variations with added creams or excessive salt may reduce its health benefits. Traditionally enjoyed alongside spicy dishes or grilled meats, Cucumber Yoghurt offers a cooling balance and delightful flavor while contributing essential nutrients like calcium and vitamins to the diet.
