About Tzatziki sauce

Tzatziki sauce is a creamy, flavorful condiment originating from Greek cuisine. Made primarily of strained yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, fresh dill, and a splash of lemon juice or vinegar, it offers a refreshing balance of tangy and savory flavors. This Mediterranean staple is commonly used as a dip, spread, or topping for dishes like gyros, roasted vegetables, or grilled meats. Tzatziki is celebrated for its health benefits, as the strained yogurt provides probiotics, protein, and calcium, while cucumbers and herbs contribute hydration and essential vitamins. Olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, making it a nutritious choice when consumed in moderation. However, some versions may include higher levels of salt or full-fat yogurt, which could increase calorie content. Overall, tzatziki is a wholesome and versatile addition to meals, particularly suited for health-conscious diets.
