It's pronounced /jah-jee-kee/. The combination TZ is used in Greek to indicate the /j/ sound in words of foreign origin, since the Greek alphabet does not have a J. In fact, the name is Turkish - spelled CACIK in Turkish and pronounced /jah-juk/. The exact same dish is made throughout the Balkans and the Eastern Mediterranean where it is called Taratour. This is probably easier to pronounce
@DezMoines100 yeah I guess it is hard to pronounce for most non-Greek languages, I too pronounce it as 'tsah-ziki', do note that 'z' gets closest to 'ts' possible I think
the name sounds like Jah-jee-Key. greek cook here: you don't need to drain off the cucumber and the lemon zest is not needed. you also need to add a spoon of olive oil and a couple of spoons of vinegar. this is a classic Greek refreshing paste salad so it kinda needs all the water in the cucumber. some people even bring this mixture to a boil then add crashed nuts in it as a nice soup
I love your channel!!

She says Taziki but it's pronounced Tsah-tsiki. At least that is how they call it in Greece

@Oranguice She's actually mispronouncing it without the second t in the middle, which is common, but incorrect.
