Tzatziki. Also lemon juice is preferable to vinegar. It is made of salted strained yogurt or diluted yogurt mixed with cucumbers, garlic, salt, olive oil, sometimes with vinegar or lemon juice, and herbs such as dill, mint, parsley and thyme. It is generally served as a cold appetizer or a side dish My husband's cousin from Greece taught me how to make a Tzatziki sauce a lot like this recipe but without the dill.
I use Fage Fat-free yogurt which I buy at Trader Joe's.
It's thick and doesn't need to be strained.
Otherwise known as that yogurt and cucumber sauce you love at Greek restaurants but worry about mispronouncing (hear the correct pronunciation here).

Tzatziki is made simply with yogurt, drained cucumber, olive oil, fresh herbs (usually mint or dill), garlic, lemon juice and salt. This is the cool and creamy sauce that usually is served as a condiment on Greek Gyro sandwiches. The recipe calls for the thicker, Greek Yogurt, also called, "Greek Cheese". If you can't find this type of yogurt, you can use plain, regular yogurt from the grocery.

Yes, you can freeze tzatziki sauce; however, it won't have the same consistency as when it was freshly made. The cucumbers can get mushy in the freezer, and the lemon may cause the yogurt to curdle a little. If you freeze your tzatziki sauce, make sure to store it packed in an airtight container, and then stir it very well before serving.
