Here’s a recipe for tzatziki sauce, a staple of Greek mezes (appetizers). Traditionally served with pitas, vegetables, and olives, it is even better as a part of what essentially is Greek poutine: Fries layered with a meat of your choice

The sauce itself is heavy on the garlic. What better way to impress your partner on Valentine’s Day than to ooze from the vegetable of love?
