[athanasiadiamantis]

sorry but this is not tzatziki

[smash0]

why would u blend it....? tzatziki should be chunky

[tagtenor]

Perfect!  This is the easiest recipe I've seen for this. I "LOVE" the taste of tzatziki sauce. I've been kind of apprehensive making it, but this gives me some confidence. :-)

[SwissShredder]

So good with lamb!

[eddison72]

Why dice the cucumber all nice and then turn around and put it in a blender?

[striderdon37]

@eddison72 so that there wont be any cucumber chunks (:

[holidaykitchen]

@blondecat666 What would you term it as?

[blondecat666]

@holidaykitchen It is a meze, or if you want an English term, I would rather go with dip than sauce. Sauce you usually pour over something. Maybe I am just being too meticulous :-)

[ArKay74]

@holidaykitchen

It's a salad.

[ClaudiuMarijuana]

i live far away from a supermarket so i used normal yogurt and it was the same only a bit runny but still delicious! i am subscribing to you.

(tip if you use to much salt add more yogurt) 1 tea spoon of extra salt you need about 2 teacups of yogurt)

is it windy in there??

[Galuf959]

@Externians No its no windy XD Its the spout on the bottle.

[alderaforall]

I don't really care what you babies want to call it, I would still try it and if it tastes good great, if not I won't make it again. What's in a name anyway?

[gbmac75]

Firstly the cucumber should be grated, Secondly traditional Tzatziki has dried and fresh mint and not fresh dill. Thirdly a little vinegar is added and not lemon juice. It's also mixed together in a bowl with a little olive oil and not blended. typical yanks fucking it up again, stick to your wendy's and taco bells cos you can't cook for toffee!

[iphone13G]

Guys real tzatziki here in greece is :

crushed garlic cloves(to your taste normally 2-3)

yogurt

shreded and dried cucumber

olive oil

vinegar

salt and pepper

mix everythig together and this is how to make real tzatziki

christos from greece

[alt4960]

I tried this recipe and even if its not old school, its EXCELLENT!

[AlcoholLevel]

blending EVO is not on my priority list.

[freedomdontcomefree1]

Outstanding recipe thank you!!!

[logical70]

Vinegar instead of lemon, and mint instead of dill, would that do? Please greek friends, do comment (possibly in English, I don't read Greek!).  Thank you

[michelortizc]

[xoblackout]

@elenfly how do you make it then? i tried to make it this way and it doesnt taste the way i bought it in the stores. i put a bit of garlic into this too. can u explain plz?

[tirovromikoulas]

Filenada to gamises to tzatziki :S

[kkoletsas]

[artnfish]

esxos, auto den einai tzatziki!

[giannis20081]

many many faults!!!! can i ask all the chefs in abroad something? do you make Greek recipes or something that is close to a Greek food?

[Cardog10]

Lemon and Vinegar are both comparable substitutes. We make barbeque sauce using lemon juice instead of vinegar. Calm down. It's like saying its not tzatziki because they used a different kind of salt. I'm sure both are great.

[despinatsaf]

Have some mercy.......

Please get real......

[MrGeorgitsa]

that is not reaL TZATZIKI

[papagos6767]

You people are unbelivable. Tzatziki? This is not tzatziki it is something that looks like it. And you show this stuff on TV? Get a recipe book, please.

[dreamygirl987]

Sorry , anyone , What is name of this Leaves that she use???? this green leaves :O please anyone can help me ...My english is not good..And i cant understand well

[sataraid]

Dill in video - I would use mint leaves.

[7robig]

yes, dried mint leaves are the way to go.

[andreasremoundos80]

@dreamygirl987 That was not tzatziki.If you want to make real tzatziki dont use these leaves and the lemon juice.Just add vinegar and pepper and instead of blender use a spoon and just mix them for a minute!Trust me.I am Greek and I know.I eat tzatziki almost every week

[02nmiller]

@dreamygirl987 Fresh Dill

[marsyr81]

Thats not tzatziki darling

Tzatziki is made by adding yogurt, cucumber, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper!

None uses lemon in tzatziki

Grom Greece with love

[sotos107]

eleos:P

[SuperCrackAttack]

Well,here in Greece is our traditional food along with souvlaki....

[getzata96]

First of all thats not greek and its not tzatziki.Its a turkish-bulgarian-macedonian dish and its called tarator.Learn first and then post videos whit wrong names!

[ruderevival]

yes it is, you dont know what youre talking about. This is called Tzatziki and it is greek, its a sauce to put on souvlaki. Tarator is a soup not a sauce, ass.

[22poopoo]

@Mariodelossantos Haha, but that isn't fair or nice...mind you I mad my arbic class, all strict muslims save 2 including me this cake with loads of brandy in, didn't notice. But i wouldn't give them pork!

[sabbirsa]

that is not cool at all. Pork is strictly prohibited in Islam and Judaism because its an unclean and scavenger animal. Why would you do that?

[SororThothma]

@sabbirsa People do it because we consider religions that endorse stupid dietary restrictions are considered retarded by intelligent people.

[fezan84]

@Mariodelossantos What the fuck?

[RENEDU2]

@Mariodelossantos

good job man.. that s nice to hear xD

they gonna eat pork whether they want or not lol

[bustamove14]

@Mariodelossantos are they aware that it's pork? because Muslim people don't eat pork.

[DorisErikssonisCRAZY]

@Mariodelossantos

oh no you d-IN'TTT!!!

[sixamaras]

greek kebaps are not from lamb. Greeks use pork. Muslims are using lamb.

[kingkongnv]

i'm going to make it

cause my husband loves it so much!

[scubzz]

that makes me so hungry lol looks great

[bestiefriends1994]

how many servings does this recipe make??

[wereluva]

wont the oil layer from the rest of the ingredients?

[88think]

its a small amount of oil that gets blended in, the result is thick enough that it doesnt allow for the different constituents to flow and separate

[RatkoUSA]

Looks tastey. I call my lamb kabobs "souvlaki" and roast them after soaking in a marinade of lemon, garlic, cummin, and mint.

For my tzatziki I finely mince the cucumber then dry by pressing between paper towels and also use fresh kirbys and finely dice the skins which are added separately.

I will try your method though.

Nice video, thanks.
