Tzatziki or Cacik ?
The traditional Tzatziki and Cacik both share a common base of yogurt, cucumber, garlic, and olive oil. However, the Turkish version, Cacik, stands out with its slightly more luscious and juicy texture. In Greek cuisine, Tzatziki is made using strained yogurt, resulting in a thicker consistency. It’s a tough call to pick a favorite between these two culinary delights – each has its own charm.
The name Cacik con Fresa pays homage to its Spanish influence, combining the Turkish Cacik with the sweetness of strawberries (fresa in Spanish). This fusion creates a unique and unforgettable flavor profile that’s perfect for those hot summer days.
Cacik con Fresa is not only a flavorful delight but also a fantastic vegetarian salad alternative. It’s the perfect addition to your Mediterranean cuisine repertoire, offering a refreshing and fruity twist on a beloved classic. Embrace the taste of summer with Cacik con Fresa!
