Tzatziki sauce is a creamy, refreshing condiment rooted in Mediterranean cuisine, particularly Greek. It's made from a blend of Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, and a touch of lemon juice or vinegar, often garnished with fresh dill or mint. This versatile sauce pairs well with grilled meats, vegetables, and pita, or works as a standalone dip. Tzatziki is a healthy choice, as it's rich in probiotics from yogurt, hydrating from cucumber, and contains heart-healthy fats from olive oil. It's low in calories and carbs, making it a great option for balanced diets. However, the sodium content can vary, so moderation is key for those monitoring salt intake. With its vibrant flavor and nutritious profile, tzatziki is both a delicious and wholesome addition to meals.
