Recipe and photos by Launie Kettler

 We’re not going to lie. This tzatziki is utterly addictive. Sincerely addictive.

Summery cucumber, lightly spicy radishes, and fresh dill along with sunny and citrusy lemon juice create a dip you’ll want on the table for a snack or appetizer several nights a week. Both cucumbers and radishes work double time in this recipe, because they show up in grated and diced form. Double your vegetables, double your fun!

Oh, and did we mention there are herby pita chips for dippers?

Oh yes, and oh my.

Now round up your ingredients, grab that F.N. Sharp Chef's Knife or Santoku and large cutting board for slicing up those pita chips and let’s get to cooking!
