finally a tzatziki recipe without dill ! i strain my yogurt with a cheese cloth  (if you dont want to pay extra $ for greek yogurt) -have it hanging somewhere so the liquid can drip. you could also throw in a dash of red wine vinegar.. wont hurt it.

@kakabreaths  For straining try coffee filter in a strainer works well too....

why don't you use real lemon ?

[samiotis111]

Thanks for the comment we appreciated, now to answer your question the lemon is real fresh squeeze and pout it on the container so is to show that is lemon.

I have a hard time finding greek yogurt at the store. Most American grocery stores are so anti-ethnic food is disgusting. Plain yogurt will do, but it never tastes as good. I would have added a little more salt though, yogurt and cucumber can be very bland with just a squirt of lemon.

Depending where you live you can fined yogurt in a middle eastern store for sure.

Always strain your yogurt.

The same thing happened to me, I didn`t like it the very first time but I learned to love it and I got addicted to it! LOL! I tried it for the first time when I visited Greece and now that I `m back home I want to try it again, thx for the recipe.

The reciepe is a success because the MAN gves the order to the woman on how to chop the cucumber. Beware MEN! Never do step into the kitchen doing a greek reciepe. That is the kigdom of the wife or the mother's in law. Just ask with a furious manner of what you would like to have and never seem totally satisfied at the end. Enjoy greek cooking : )
