Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Cucumber
Wash the cucumber thoroughly. Cut it in half lengthwise and remove the seeds with a spoon. Grate the cucumber using a box grater or a food processor.
- 2
Squeeze Out Excess Water
Place the grated cucumber in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This will prevent the tzatziki from being watery.

Chill the Tzatziki
