TZATZIKI SAUCE MADE USING FREEZE DRIED INGREDIENTS

 



My top question about my freeze-dried food is how to use it.  

Freeze-dried food is used in the same way as fresh or frozen food. In this recipe I used shredded freeze dried cucumbers, freeze dried dill, and freeze dried garlic that I powdered.

Of course, you can substitute fresh ingredients in place of the freeze dried ingredients.


INGREDIENTS

  • ½ cup finely grated freeze dried or fresh cucumber
  • 1 cup of Greek yogurt 
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 
  • 1 teaspoon of freeze dried garlic or 1 clove of garlic, grated.  
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon  of freeze dried dill or chopped fresh dill

DIRECTIONS

  • If you are not using freeze dried cucumber, place the freshly grated cucumber on a towel and gently squeeze out a bit of the excess water.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cucumber, yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, and dill. Chill until ready to use.
