Notes

Tips and Tricks
  • You can peel the cucumber before grating if you prefer a smoother texture in the dip.
  • Tzatziki tastes best when served chilled, so refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Feel free to garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or a drizzle of olive oil before serving for an extra touch of flavor.
