Directions:
- Place a cheesecloth or paper coffee filter in a colander and pour in the yogurt. Allow the yogurt to drain for several hours. I put it in the refrigerator the night before I make tzatziki.
- Place the grated cucumber in another colander and let that drain for two hours.
- Mix together all of the ingredients except the extra olive oil for garnish, and then chill.
- Serve on individual plates with pita wedges as an appetizer, garnished with a drizzle of olive oil, at each person's seat -OR- in a bowl with pita wedges and/or crudite with drinks.
- NOTE: please be sure to keep this covered well and chilled only 2 or 3 days until used and enjoyed.
