Greek Tzatziki Sauce

Greek tzatziki sauce is the iconic Mediterranean cucumber-and-yogurt sauce that turns toasted bread, raw vegetables, grilled meat or fish, even a plain crust of bread, into something with real Greek flavor. It is built on thick, natural Greek yogurt with garlic, fresh cucumber, dill, and a dressing of lemon and olive oil. The sauce is bright, tangy and cucumber-fresh, with an aromatic note of garlic and just the right body, thick enough to scoop yet thin enough to dip into. The whole thing takes about 15 minutes and makes 5 servings (330 g in total), enough for a family appetizer or to round out a mezze platter. The key technique is to drain the moisture from the cucumber before mixing it in, or the sauce turns watery.
