About Taztziki

Tzatziki is a creamy, refreshing dip or sauce originating from Greek cuisine. It is traditionally made with yogurt, cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh herbs like dill or mint. This Mediterranean staple is not only flavorful but also packed with nutritional benefits. The yogurt base provides probiotics that support gut health, as well as calcium for strong bones. Cucumbers add hydration and vitamins, while olive oil and fresh herbs contribute heart-healthy fats and antioxidants. Tzatziki is relatively low in calories and can complement a wide range of dishes, such as grilled meats, vegetables, or pita bread. However, those watching sodium intake should be mindful, as some recipes may include added salt. Whether used as a dip, spread, or dressing, tzatziki is a versatile and nutritious choice to enhance your meals.
