About Tzatziki

Tzatziki is a creamy, flavorful dip or sauce originating from Greek cuisine, often served alongside Mediterranean dishes. It is traditionally made from strained yogurt, which provides a rich and smooth texture, mixed with grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh dill or mint for added zest. This versatile condiment is commonly paired with grilled meats, pita bread, or fresh vegetables. Tzatziki is celebrated for its health benefits due to its high protein content from yogurt, gut-friendly probiotics, and antioxidants from herbs and olive oil. Cucumbers contribute hydration and vitamins, while garlic offers immune-boosting properties. However, depending on preparation, tzatziki may contain moderate levels of calories and fat, especially if made with full-fat yogurt. Overall, it’s a nutritious and refreshing option that fits well within a balanced diet.
