Tzatziki. Also makes a nice dipping sauce for Veggies. Called Cacik in Turkey, Tarator in the Balkans, Tzatziki in Greece, each version of this salad is a variation on a theme: yogurt, cucumbers, garlic, fresh herbs The yogurt is thick, and pungent with mashed garlic, the cucumbers either finely chopped or grated, then salted and allowed to wilt Walnuts enrich the Balkan version, which is also considered a soup, as is Cacik Fry up some zucchini or eggplant slices (dredge in flour and fried in olive oil) and serve with a dollop of tzatziki on top. Note: If I have time, I often lightly salt the grated cucumber and put in a colander to drain, then squeeze out water as per usual.
Tzatziki is a simple Greek yogurt sauce that goes well on everything from chicken to beef to pita chips! Add lemon zest, dill, salt, and pepper; whisk until smooth. At last, a proper tzatziki, just the way we make this in Greece.
