on Jan 12, 2024 Despite being called Snow White Salad, this is actually more of a spread or dip rather than a traditional salad. In Bulgaria 🇧🇬, this popular dip is called “Sux Tarator” or “Snezhanka” and it is served with almost everything!
Why You’ll Love Snow White Salad 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 💪. Not only is this spread the perfect combination of creamy, crunchy, and tart, but you can enjoy it in so many different ways. Spread it on some freshly baked bread 🥖 or a nice warm pita, serve it alongside chicken, veggies or fish, or use it to make my Zucchini Egg Roll for the perfect protein-packed meal. The best part is you can store this spread in the fridge for up to a week and use it to elevate any basic weekday meal.
How to Prepare Snow White Salad Recipe
🌙 Place yogurt in cheesecloth, tie it up and let it drain over a sieve in a bowl overnight. You can tie it to the sink faucet for drainage. 💦 Allow the yogurt to drain until it becomes super thick. It should resemble the texture and taste of cream cheese by the next morning. ☀️ Then in the morning, mix the thick strained yogurt with salt, pickles, dill, and garlic in a bowl. 🫒 Enjoy the dip by topping it with crushed walnuts, olive oil, and olives.
