Tzatziki sauce is a traditional Greek sauce made from strained yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, and fresh herbs such as dill or mint. It is typically served as a condiment or dip with grilled meats, pita bread, or vegetables. The tangy and refreshing taste of tzatziki comes from the combination of creamy yogurt and cool cucumber, while the garlic and herbs add depth of flavor.
