SUN-DRIED TOMATO TZATZIKI RECIPE
This riff on traditional Greek yogurt dip tzatziki is one of my favorite recipes that I've developed. I sub in sun-dries tomatoes for the cucumbers that are traditionally used in tzatziki. What you get is a super tasty, vibrant sauce that is perfect on everything from bread to my savory Baked Zucchini Cakes.

HOMEMADE PLAIN GREEK YOGURT
Learning how to make Greek yogurt at home is simple with this easy homemade Greek yogurt recipe. Start by making homemade yogurt by heating milk, combining with a little bit of already-cultured yogurt and letting it sit in a warm spot until the milk turns into yogurt. Making protein-rich Greek yogurt takes one more step than making regular yogurt: straining the yogurt to thicken it. You can add the leftover liquid--also known as whey--to smoothies, or you can use it in place of buttermilk in baking.

Steps:
- Heat milk in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until it is steaming, barely bubbling and registers 180 degrees F on an instant-read or candy thermometer. (Do not leave unattended--it can boil over very quickly.)
- Carefully pour the milk into a clean, heat-safe 5- to 8-cup container. Let stand, stirring frequently, until cooled to 110 degrees F. Combine yogurt with 1/2 cup of the 110 degrees milk in a small bowl, then stir the mixture back into the warm milk.
- Cover the container and wrap in a clean kitchen towel to help keep it warm. Place in a very warm place (see Tip) and let stand, undisturbed, until thickened and tangy, at least 8 hours and up to 12 hours. Refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours. The yogurt will thicken a bit more in the refrigerator.
- Line a large fine-mesh sieve with 2 layers of cheesecloth and place over a large bowl. Spoon the cooled yogurt into the cheesecloth, cover and refrigerate for 8 to 24 hours, depending on how thick you want it.

- Peel cucumber if desired (it adds a faint texture and a will lightly tint the dip, but this is optional to peel). Slice cucumber in half throught the length and use a spoon to remove seeds.
- Chop cucumber into chunks, then add to a food processor.**** Pulse until cucumber is almost finely chopped.
- Remove blade from food processor, then press cucumber against the sides of the processor bowl to remove some of the excess liquid, reserve liquid (proceed to step 1 in notes if you aren't using a very thick Greek yogurt).
- Add yogurt, cucumber, dill, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice to a medium mixing bowl. Season with salt, and pepper if using, to taste.
- Stir mixture until well blended. If you find it's a little thick for your liking you can pour in some of the reserved cucumber juice from the food processor.
- If serving over warm food (like salmon, chicken, steak, gyro or cooked veggies) let rest at room temperature about 30 minutes. Store in refrigerator.
