Very nice. To add a little zip, I add a pinch of cayenne!

Tasted really good. The cucumber needed to be shreaded instead of chopped.

This recipe is really good but I can definitely see how people can find it too runny. To curb that I tend to dry the cucumber with paper towels after letting them drain, and I also use a lot less yogurt than the recipe calls for (about 1/2 cup)

Instead of using regular yogurt, substitute Greek Yogurt (my supermarket sells "Total"). This yogurt is much thicker than regular yogurt and therefore does not need to be drained. Also, you don't really need a food processor.

We didn't like this very much. Ended up throwing it out because it was so watery.

this was so so. Very thin, even after draining the cucmbers and yogurt for an hour. The taste was ok, but no quite what Im looking for. I think next time I will use 1 cucumber, will drain the cucmber and yogurt longer, use more dill, and add a touch of fresh mint.

Truly excellent! I do add 1/3 cup mayo and omit the oil. I can eat it by the spoonfulls - seriously! I make this as a sauce for Souvlaki (also on this website) placed in pita pockets with diced tomatoes. Souvlaki with Tzatziki sauce is my husband and I's all-time favorite dinner. Definitely seed, chop, salt, and drain the cucumbers and use fresh, squeezed lemon juice. I do not need to drain the yogurt (but I don't use low fat) and I don't recommend using a food processor or blender. MIX BY HAND to maintain some thickness.

This was easy to make and good. As suggested by other users I drained the yogurt over cheesecloth in the fridge overnight. It was unbelievable how much water drained off. I also shredded the cucumber, salted it and drained it over cheesecloth in the fridge overnight. The tzatziki sauce was of a good consistency but I can see how it would have been runny had I not drained the yogurt and cucumber.

Really great alternative to the "real thing". We use this on chicken pitas, I don't even bother to blend and I shred the cukes instead and add a couple tablespoons or so of sour cream....So good!

Overall this was a pretty good sauce, but it is still not as good as the greek resturaunts. I made a modification to this sauce, I used sour cream instead of yogurt because I didn't have any yogurt at the time and I used english cucumbers because it has less seeds in it. It's not as healthy as using yogurt but it made it more creamy. I used the sauce with deep fried calamari. Yum!

The taste is great but next time I will DEFINATLEY drain the cucumbers better and blend everything except yogurt then fold it into the yogurt. I will use what I made this time in the food processor as a dressing...still great though!

This was fantastic. I chopped the cucumbers instead of using the food processor and then I spread it over chicken in a pita. Make a lot because it is hard to stop eating it. It was even better on the second day.

This was wonderful! I served this on shrimp pitas with sauteed green peppers and onions. I also followed another users' suggestion to fold the ingredients into the yogurt instead of using the food processor, and let it sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Thanks for the great recipe!

This was good, not as good as at the local Greek restaurant though. I drained the water out of the cucumber before adding it to the yogurt. I think there would have been way too much water if they would not have been drained. Good recipe, goes great with Sean's Falafel.

This is a good Recipe: HELPFUL HINTS: Drain your full fat yogurt in a cheesecloth for a couple hours. Also, salt your cucumber and then squeeze out excess water after 20 min or so. The flavor of this recipe is great. I think these things will make its watery consistancy even better:)

I made this for my sis (and my) birthday (we're twins) and everyone there loved this. We used Pita chips for dipping. As my daugher said, "This tastes exactly like the Tzatziki we eat at our favorite Greek restaurant." It was wonderful.

I adjusted the measurements/ingredients a bit. I love lemon, and used the handheld blender to mince some of the cuc's with the garlic to thicken it a bit and left some cuc's chunkier. All in all, I just loved it!!! It's just like the sauce served w/Greek dishes when I have it out. I refrigerated it overnight to have it with the souvlaki I made the next night. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. Thank you Dinah! :)
