Cacık (Turkish tzatziki) and Turkish yoghurt
Cacık
Cacık (say ja-jik) is cool, thick yoghurt with cucumber, mint and a little garlic. It's the cooling partner to anything off the charcoal grill.

Where it comes from
Yoghurt has been part of Turkish food for centuries, and the word yoghurt itself comes from Turkish. Cacık is its best-known everyday use, close cousin of the Greek tzatziki. In summer it's often thinned with water and eaten almost like a cold soup.
How we make it at EFES
Cacık with cucumber, mint, a hint of garlic and olive oil. Prefer it plain? Our Turkish yoghurt comes with olive oil and dried mint.
