tzatziki- impossible to spell but delicious to eat

      tzatziki- gosh this is my all-time favorite condiment, if I had to choose between mayo and tzatziki for a sandwich i would choose this any day. french fries? NO that's jacked up i prefer seasoned ketchup with a little bit of balsamic vinegar yes i will show you that recipe when I think your ready. when i first heard of tzatziki i thought hmm this is a complex condiment. but there's a local Mediterranean restaurant called Santorini Grill and they serve this killer gyro with the tzatziki they are a new restaurant that opened . week ago in swansboro if you ever visit Swansboro, north Carolina then you should try. the taste is very simple, tangy with a flavor of dill and hint of mint 

Tzatziki- portions for 4

2 cups of greek yogurt the real stuff
3 Tbsp of herbs 2:1 ratio of dill and mint
1 large English cucumber grated
1 teaspoon of salt plus more to taste
4 cloves of garlic grated 
juice of half a lime 

1- in a small bowl take the cucumber and a grater and grate the cucumber add the salt and leave it for 15 minutes to draw out that water from the cucumber there's nothing worse then a watery Tzatziki. you know the deal with cucumbers alot of water that release when grated .

2- take a medium sized bowl take about 2 cups of Greek yogurt and please use the real stuff go to the nicest grocery store where you live in maybe whole foods is my favorite.

3- grate the garlic and add it to the yogurt stir it in with a spoon. 

4- roughly mince the dill and mint. if you don't like dill or mint use parsley or basil, but i highly recommend dill and mint

5-add in the cucumber and the lime juice and the roughly minced herbs.

6- stir it all together and your done.

7- get some pita bread and grilled lamb and enjoy!

*note I did not measure the yogurt so mine ended up too strong of flavor of dill so please measure the yogurt.
