GREEK TZATZIKI: Grate a medium cucumber onto a plate. Once grated to a consistency similar to puree, add salt so the cucumber releases water. Pour the yogurt into a bowl. If you want to reduce the caloric content of the dish, you can substitute with low-fat yogurt, ensuring to remove the whey and being aware that the final result will have less consistency and creaminess.
