Notes

Check out my recipe tips above to help you get the best texture in your tzatziki sauce. I store this sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It's best within 2-3 days, but rarely lasts that long at our house. My tzatziki recipe makes about 1 ½ cups total, but can vary depending on how much you drain the cucumbers.
