Tzatziki [0000977]

Ingredients:

1 cup gluten-free Greek yogurt
1/2 cucumber, grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon dried mint (optional)
Gluten-free cucumber slices or gluten-free pita bread, for serving

Instructions:

Start by grating the cucumber. You can leave the skin on or peel it, depending on your preference. After grating, squeeze the grated cucumber in your hand or through a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture. Discard the liquid.

In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free Greek yogurt, minced garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and chopped fresh dill. Mix well.

Add the grated and drained cucumber to the yogurt mixture and stir until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Season the tzatziki with salt and black pepper to taste. Add dried mint if desired for an extra layer of flavor.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the tzatziki for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.

Before serving, taste the tzatziki and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

Serve your gluten-free Greek Tzatziki as an appetizer with cucumber slices or gluten-free pita bread for dipping.

Enjoy the cool, creamy, and tangy goodness of homemade gluten-free Greek Tzatziki!
