Tzatziki sauce
Tzatziki sauce is awesome. If anyone knows how to properly pronounce it, I’d love to be enlightened. I just usually call it yogurt sauce. Hubby knows what I’m talking about when I say that. This sauce goes with a variety of things and you can even just dip veggies in it.
Dill is probably my second favorite herb behind Cilantro. I have a somewhat obsessive love with cilantro. But dill isn’t as versatile in my mind, so we rarely have it in the house. Some day I’ll have an herb garden. First I have to learn how to get our cats (well actually it’s just Nemo) not to eat any plant that is in the house. But I digress. So I love dill and put a lot in this sauce. Feel free to put however much you like.

How big a bottle of Guinness, please? (I’m not a beer person and I never stock beer so I’d really love to know, please!)
Can’t wait to try this recipe. Thank you, and warm regards,

Sorry, I’ll update the recipe. A bottle of Guinness has 11.2oz in it.
Now if only I knew where to procure mustard seeds from… I love mustard and would love to make some at home, too!

I buy mine at Penzey’s. We have one really close to our house in Cincinnati now, but they also have a website you can order from. Or you could check out Amazon.
I bookmarked this. I’ve been wondering how to make mustard from scratch. Thanks!

It’s definitely worth making at home!
WOW! This does sound easy!

It’s beyond easy 🙂
My boyfriend loves Guinness mustard. We used to be able to buy it from a farm shop in the UK, but I think they’ve stopped making it. So glad I found this recipe, I made it last night. Can’t wait to see how it turns out. Thanks so much for posting!

Let me know what you guys think of it! I’m in the process of making a HUGE batch to package up for holiday gifts for friends.
He loved it. It made quite a lot as well, so I’ve already handed a few jars to friends as a gift! Really tasty x
