Great sauce to top our homemade gyros. I may add more seasonings next time to add a little extra "oomph".

    Wonderful taste. I drained yogurt instead and drained and squeezed dry my cucuber too. The amounts of spices was a great ratio to the yogurt. It made a great combo paired with gyro meat.

    Great! I had tried other recipes and they were all too runny. This was perfect. Thought the mustard was weird, but it tasted great.

    This tasted good as is, although for my taste, I found the garlic salt made the sauce too salty, so on second attempt substituted garlic powder for the garlic salt. I also added more cucumber and substituted lowfat plain yogurt for the sour cream. With these adjustments Gyro Sauce #57747 is now a permanent addition to my recipe rotation.
