Tzatziki. To be truly superb, tzatziki MUST be made with strained, whole mild yogurt from Greece, otherwise the result will be runny as many users have noted. Also lemon juice is preferable to vinegar. But the one non-negotiable item is the strained, full fat yogurt.
What yogurt do you use for tzatziki?
To make homemade tzatziki, you'll need to get yourself some good, plain Greek yogurt.
For best results, strain the moisture from the yogurt by spooning it into a cheesecloth (or a few layer of paper towels), setting it into a mesh sieve, and letting the excess moisture drip out.

At last, a proper tzatziki, just the way we make this in Greece. The only difference is that we mostly use red wine vinegar here, instead of white, but the taste is pretty much the same. And we NEVER use lemon, like we've seen in Americanized versions of tzatziki. My husband's cousin from Greece taught me how to make a Tzatziki sauce a lot like this recipe but without the dill.

I make this sauce whenever I fix a pork tenderloin. I use the Souvlaki recipe by Abby Benner to marinade the tenderloin. I use Fage Fat-free yogurt which I buy at Trader Joe's. It's thick and doesn't need to be strained. This is a versatile sauce that is the perfect accompaniment to many Mediterranean dishes.
