About Greek yogurt sauce

Greek yogurt sauce, often referred to as tzatziki, is a tangy and creamy condiment with roots in Mediterranean cuisine. Made primarily from strained Greek yogurt, the sauce is typically blended with refreshing ingredients like cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh herbs such as dill or mint. Known for its rich texture and versatility, it pairs well with grilled meats, vegetables, or as a dip for pita bread. Greek yogurt sauce is celebrated for its health benefits, being high in protein and probiotics that support digestion and gut health. Its base, Greek yogurt, is lower in fat compared to cream-based alternatives, though versions may vary depending on added oils and ingredients. Light, flavorful, and nutrient-packed, this sauce is a wholesome choice for enhancing meals without sacrificing balance.
