Dairy-Free Tzatziki

Tzatziki made Truffula cheese, in a bowl on a cutting board. Topped with lemon and dill.

The Original Cultured Cashew Jar is our most versatile product because it lends itself beautifully to creamy recipes like dressings and dips. One of our favourite ways to use the Original is to recreate a traditional Greek tzatziki into a raw, dairy-free version. Simple, fresh, and crisp, the dill, lemon, and cucumber really add depth, with the addition of spring water transforming the texture to that of a yogurt.

Enjoy this dip with fresh, crunchy veggies, falafel, our Sprouted Seed & Onion Crispbread, or a Greek rice bowl.
