Best tzatziki recipe!

[blopez34]

What is your family's tzatziki recipe? And what type of Greek yogurt is best to use? Thanks!

I use strained Greek yogurt, preferably fresh from the Greek supermarket. Getting a good base for the dip is key. Then I just add garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and cucumber to taste! No measurements here ahah

I find that any type of Greek yogurt works well, but for me, the thicker the better. I like getting it fresh from the Greek market if I can, but if I am unable to get to the store, I find that any supermarket Greek yogurt does the job. I like a thicker dip, so I back off a little bit from the lemon juice than most recipes say. I find that it I like the tzatziki to taste creamier, and when there's too much lemon it tastes too acidic to me.
