Looking forward to the German Wordcamp in Jena.

We should do a German cookery show. In case you like we can do Maultaschen, Currywurst or Leberkässemmeln …

I sometimes buy the Trader Joe’s Tzatziki. How does it compare to homemade I wonder?

Greek yoghurt. There’s really not much to it. One easy way to make it yourself is to get a tub of plain yoghurt from the market, then dump it into cheese cloth (or a handkerchief) and suspend it over a bowl in the fridge. The water will drain out and you’ll be left with the thick yoghurt. Also, dill is absolutely required in Tzatsiki (not chives), as is a healthy amount of extra virgin olive oil. Normally you would need to add a bit of salt, but your method of preparing the ingredients with salt has somewhat negated the use of extra salt. Cheers, sir.

I’ve never seen someone chop garlic like that…I also never thought I’d see Mr. WordPress cooking!

I’ve been making Tzatziki for years – best in the trailer while traveling. I put the cucumber and/or yogurt, if I can’t find Greek, in cheese cloth and hang them over the sink. The bouncing of the trailer over the road encouraged the draining and I’d have the best thick tzatziki! I also use dill in mine sometimes.

Excellent job! I expect some next time I see you! Now, if you conquer Arabic hummus, let me know. It’s a disaster every time I make it.

Good work, however next time don’t cut your garlic like this. I saw some doubt in your hand and you can cut yourself quite badly. It works for onions, but this was too dangerous..

Tip: First smash your garlic with the side of your knife, peel it off and then just go at it with your knife, chopping as much as you can, this way you’ll mash it while chopping.. the rest was VERY good!

I think Matt should do a weekly cookshow.

Come on ppl, “cooking with Matt”. He can be a multi-tasker….automattic, akismet, gravatar, polldaddy, wordpress, and now cooking.

Pfft, one more thing won’t kill him.

Actually “Cac?k” is a Turkish food . Throughout the history it became common between Turkish & Greek cuisine…

A quick hint for everybody.. garlic is yummy tasty but don’t over do it.. experiment a few times with different doses of garlic otherwise your loved ones will hate you even if you brush your teeth

Well done Matt!
If I had a tavern here in Crete Greece, I would let you make the Tsatziki recipe cause you made it right and carefully.
Greetings from Heraklion, Crete my friend.
