I've been making tzatziki using the same ingredients and I love it. I serve it with falafels and pita.

Very good recipe. I didn't find it too tart, possibly because I didn't have time to drain regular yogurt so used Greek yogurt instead.

Wonderful! Just as good as our favorite Greek restaurant. I used greek yogurt, which is nice and thick, so I didn't have to take the time to drain it.

This recipe is fantastic and even easier if you use Greek yogurt and a food processor! I put the Greek yogurt in the processor along with the salt, pepper, crushed garlic, and 1/2 cup whole mint leaves (loosely packed). Then, I pulsed it for a bit to coarsely chop the mint and garlic. After that, I threw in the diced up cucumber and pulsed some more. The immediate results were DELICIOUS and I'm sure it will be even better after a night in the fridge.

I didn't have any yogurt so I used sour cream instead. It was great.I added chopped green onions just to give it a different taste. This dish was quick and easy.

This was so incredibly quick and delicious. To save time, I used an English cucumber and shredded it whole in the food processor (no peeling or deseeding needed). The Greek yogurt that I found was extremely thick, so I didn't even think about straining it. Added fresh lemon juice, and it was ready to go. If you're in a bind,eat right away (very flavorful regardless).

Made this to go with the spicy lamb burgers from this site and it was amazing. There was nothing left as everyone was scooping the remaining sauce with corn chips. Now that Greek yoghurt is so popular, you can use it (I love Stonyfield Oikos) and skip the straining step. I am going to try it next time with goat's milk Greek yoghurt from my farmer's market.

We JUST got back from Greece and I was already craving tzatziki! Have to say not the absolute best I've ever had (I've had some pretty amazing tzatziki) but I'd have to say pretty darn good and still worth 5 stars. I didn't have any cheesecloth (not sure what it is...) so I lined a colander with coffee filters and put it over a bowl for a few hours. This is a crucial step if you can't find authentic Greek yogurt! (which I couldn't) The real stuff is much thicker so straining the liquid out is important. Everyone loved it! Great dip for gyros, souvlaki, pita, etc. A great way to make good souvlaki is to get a pita, use the "Greek Chicken" recipe submitted by Karen, a wedge of lemon, a few tomato slices, and a healthy dollop of this tzatziki! Voila, delish greek meal!

This had really great flavor, and the best combination of ingredients of the tzatziki recipes on this site. However, the prep time could be seriously reduced if one used real Greek yogurt (like Oikos) that is already thick and does not require straining. I found this to be most difficult in my technologically challenged kitchen lacking cheesecloth or even the basic coffee filter. Needless to say, mine turned out a bit runny :P Used the food processor to chop and mix everything up. Served with falafel, lettuce, and tomato on a pita. The consistency didn't ruin anything, but will save myself the trouble and just use Greek yogurt next time.

Extremely tasty and authentic! If you don't have a cheesecloth, just use a paper coffee filter and it works beautifully.

Very good and was even better the next day! I used whole fat Greek yogurt and a little less mint (only because I did not have enough) and it turned out great. I served on gyro meat with pita and it was wonderful! This is a keeper. :)
