Haydari (Turkish Yogurt Dip) image

I live in Turkey and love ordering haydari at restaurants or picking it up from the deli section at the market. It is a thick and tangy Turkish yogurt dip best served with meat kebab and pita bread.

I'm not a huge fan of yogurt, but this dip was surprisingly good. The garlic and herbs really balanced out the tanginess of the yogurt.
