About Greek gyro sauce

Greek gyro sauce, traditionally known as tzatziki, is a creamy and refreshing condiment originating from Greece and widely used in Mediterranean cuisine. Made primarily from strained yogurt, cucumber, garlic, olive oil, and fresh dill or mint, this sauce pairs perfectly with gyros, grilled meats, and vegetables. Its base ingredient, yogurt, provides probiotics that support gut health and is a good source of protein and calcium. Olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, while cucumber contributes hydration and vitamins. Garlic and herbs enhance the flavor while offering antioxidant benefits. However, depending on the preparation, some versions may include more olive oil or full-fat yogurt, which could increase calorie and fat content. Overall, tzatziki is a nutritious choice that enhances dishes with its vibrant, tangy taste, making it both a flavorful and health-conscious addition to meals.
