Notes:
From the kitchen
- Too sour → add 1 tsp olive oil or mayo.
- Too sharp → add 1–2 tbsp yogurt.
- Too thick → splash of water.
- Needs brightness → tiny squeeze of lemon.
- Blend until fully smooth for the creamiest texture.
- Add 1–2 tablespoons water if you want a thinner, drizzle-able sauce.
- Swap mayo for more yogurt if you prefer it lighter.
- Add more feta for a bolder, saltier bite.
- Add extra yogurt for a lighter, creamier sauce.
- Add olive oil for a silkier texture.
- Add a tiny squeeze of lemon if it tastes flat.
- Add cucumber for a tzatziki-style twist.
- Blend in fresh dill or parsley for a herby finish.
- Stir in a spoon of tomato sauce for a soft pink, slightly sweeter sauce.
- Perfect with chicken wraps, roasted veggies, grain bowls, sandwiches, or as a quick dip with warm bread.
