Tzatziki Sauce SCD Legal

Tzatziki Sauce SCD Legal      Cooking for 2 Recipe

Prepare 24 hours ahead of time to allow time for cucumber and yogurt to drain

1/2 to 2/3 cup  SCD 24 Hour Yogurt (homemade)
1 Organic Cucumber
1 Garlic Clove, minced
1 TSP fresh squeezed Lemon juice
1 TSP Olive Oil
1/4 TSP dill or to taste

• Drain Yogurt overnight, refrigerated.  Drain using any method you like.  I like to put a coffee filter in a wire mesh strainer over a bowl.  Place the yogurt on the filter then cover with plastic wrap or a cloth so it doesn't dry out too much on the top.
• Cut the cucumber in half and deseed using a spoon.  Peel cucumber (or leave peel on if you like more crunch).  Chop into small chunks (about 1/4 inch square.  Drain using any method you like.  I like to put the pieces in cheesecloth and suspend over a bowl to drain.  Drain overnight, refrigerated
• Several hours before serving combine the drained yogurt, cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and dill.
• Cover and chill several hours before serving.

 This is a recipe that you can make to your taste.  I like mine with very little dill and on the dry side.  You can also add salt to taste.
