💭 Frequently Asked Questions
Can this be made vegan or dairy-free?
Most certainly! I prefer cashew-based yogurts with this recipe, but oat milk-based and coconut-based yogurts work well, too.
How do I store Tzatziki?
This tzatziki recipe keeps well for up to one week in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
My tzatziki usually comes out watered down-tasting. Any tips for preventing this?
Yes! Excess moisture is usually the result of using grated cucumber that hasn’t been drained well enough. To prevent this, ensure your cucumber is well drained by squeezing it until no liquid drains out. This is a must for the best possible results!
