Snow White Salad (Snezhanka) Recipe
Similar in taste and texture to Tzatziki, this Snow White Salad is the perfect spread for any occasion. It consists of strained yogurt, salt, pickles, dill, garlic and a drizzle of olive oil, so we're talking probiotics and lots of protein 💪.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 tub plain yogurt strained overnight in a cheesecloth so it thickens (725 grams)
- pinch of salt
- 5 large diced dill pickles or grated cucumber
- ¼ cup dill freshly chopped
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- drizzle of olive oil
- crushed walnuts optional
Instructions
- Add yogurt to a cheesecloth, tie it up and let it drain overnight.
- NOTE: You can let it drain over a sieve that sits on top of a bowl, but we like to tie the cheesecloth to the sink faucet and let it drain into the sink overnight. You can also buy thick Greek yogurt and skip this step.
- The strained yogurt should be super thick and taste like cream cheese the following morning.
- Add the strained yogurt to a bowl with salt, pickles, dill, and garlic. Mix well and enjoy with crushed walnuts, olive oil, and olives on top.
- You can store it in the fridge in a glass Tupperware with the lid on as it will stay fresh for 5-7 days.
