# What You'll Need:
→ Herbs & Aromatics
01 - 3 tablespoons dried dill
02 - 2 tablespoons dried mint
03 - 2 tablespoons dried parsley
04 - 1 tablespoon dried chives
05 - 1 tablespoon garlic granules

→ Spices & Seasonings

10 - 1/2 teaspoon dried cucumber powder (optional)
# Method:
01 - In a medium mixing bowl, combine all dried herbs, garlic granules, onion powder, sea salt, black pepper, dried lemon zest (or citric acid), and cucumber powder if using.
02 - Whisk all ingredients together vigorously until the seasoning blend is uniform and no clumps remain.
03 - Transfer the finished mix to an airtight container or spice jar. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
04 - Stir 1 to 2 tablespoons into Greek yogurt or sour cream with a splash of olive oil for an instant tzatziki-style dip. Alternatively, sprinkle directly over grilled vegetables, chicken, or seafood.
# Insider Tips:
01 -
- You can whip up tzatziki flavored anything in seconds without chopping a single cucumber or squeezing lemons.
- It stores for six months in a cool dry spot, making it perfect for meal prep or unexpected guests.
02 -
- Moisture is the enemy here. Even a damp spoon can introduce enough humidity to clump your blend and shorten its shelf life.
- I once used garlic powder instead of garlic granules and the texture was noticeably finer, which some people actually prefer for dipping mixes.
03 -
- Toast the dried herbs in a dry skillet for thirty seconds before mixing to intensify their flavor dramatically.
- Double the batch because you will go through it much faster than you expect.
