      Title: Tzatziki Sauce
 Categories: Dairy, Squash, Sauces
      Yield: 2 Cups

      2 c  Plain yoghurt
      2 lg Cucumbers; halved, seeded
           Salt & fresh ground pepper
      2 cl Garlic; minced
  1 1/2 tb White wine vinegar
      1 tb Olive oil

  Line a sieve with a damp cheesecloth and place over a large bowl.
  Dump the yoghurt into the sieve, cover with plastic wrap, and allow
  to drain in the ice box for 24 hours.

  Peel the cucumbers. Cut them in half lengthwise. Using a teaspoon,
  scrape out and discard the seeds. Grate the cucumbers into a
  colander, using the large holes on a four-sided grater. Salt the
  cucumbers and allow them to drain for 1/2 hour.

  Place the garlic, vinegar, and olive oil in a bowl and marinate
  while the cucumbers are draining. Squeeze the drained cucumbers as
  dry as possible and blot on paper towels. Place in the bowl with
  the marinated garlic.

  Add the drained yoghurt and stir. Add a few grindings of fresh
  pepper and salt if necessary.

  Serve with gyros or with toasted pita bread triangles.
