Homemade Tzatziki Sauce: A Refreshing Low-Sodium Twist

Looking for a creamy, flavorful sauce that pairs perfectly with your favorite dishes?
This homemade Tzatziki Sauce has all the classic Mediterranean flavors you love, but with a Symphony Seasonings twist: it's low in sodium, packed with essential minerals, and incredibly simple to make.

Perfect as a dip, dressing, or topping, this recipe highlights the magic of our Replenishing Salt, delivering flavor with added potassium and magnesium to support your health goals.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)
  • 1 cucumber, finely grated and squeezed of excess liquid
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tsp dried dill)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp Replenishing Salt (or adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions

  1. Prep the cucumber.
    Grate the cucumber using a box grater, then use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out the excess water. This keeps your sauce thick and creamy.

  2. Mix the base.
    In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, chopped dill, olive oil, and lemon juice.

  3. Season and stir.
    Add Replenishing Salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine all the flavors.

  4. Chill.
    Cover and refrigerate the sauce for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

  5. Serve.
    Enjoy with fresh veggies, pita bread, or as a topping for grilled meats, falafel, or gyros.

Why This Tzatziki Sauce is Better for You

Unlike store-bought versions that can be loaded with sodium, this homemade tzatziki features Symphony Seasonings’ Replenishing Salt, which contains:

  • 50x the potassium and 10x the magnesium of pink Himalayan salt
  • Only 130 mg of sodium per 1/4 tsp

This means you can enjoy the creamy tanginess without compromising your health.

Pro Tip:

For a thicker consistency, use full-fat Greek yogurt and let the sauce sit overnight in the fridge. The flavors only get better with time!
