Cacik with corn is a chilled yogurt dip made with cucumber and corn. Garlic, salt, and herbs such as dill are common additions, though recipes vary from one kitchen to another.
To make cacik with corn, stir drained corn and grated or finely chopped cucumber into yogurt. Season with salt and, if you like, garlic and dill, then chill it before serving.
Yes, use cooked corn in cacik with corn. Canned corn is already cooked; if you use fresh corn, cook the kernels first and let them cool so they do not warm the yogurt.
Yes, frozen corn works in cacik with corn. Cook it according to the package directions, drain it well, and let it cool completely before mixing it with the yogurt and cucumber.
Cacik with corn is served cold, not hot. Chilling it lets the flavors come together and keeps the yogurt dip refreshing; stir it before serving if liquid has collected on top.
Cacik with corn pairs well with grilled chicken, kebabs, roasted vegetables, and rice dishes. Serve it as a cool side or dip alongside warm, savory food rather than heating it.
Cacik with corn usually turns watery because cucumber releases liquid after it is grated and mixed with yogurt. Squeeze out excess cucumber water, drain the corn thoroughly, or use thicker yogurt.
Yes, cacik with corn can be made without garlic. The yogurt, cucumber, and corn still give it a fresh, mildly sweet flavor; dill, mint, or a little black pepper can add character instead.
Keep cacik with corn covered in the refrigerator and eat it promptly while it is fresh. Cucumber can release water as it sits, so stir before serving and discard it if it has been left out for a long time.
Yes, cacik with corn can be spooned over grain bowls or used as a thick, cool dressing for salads. For easier pouring, stir in a little plain yogurt until it reaches the consistency you want.

Cacik with corn is a variation on Turkish cacık, made with yoghurt, cucumber and corn. Garlic and fresh herbs such as mint or dill may be added, depending on the cook. The cool, tangy yoghurt and crisp cucumber are balanced by corn’s gentle sweetness and pleasantly chewy kernels.
Serve it chilled as a dip or side, much as cacık is enjoyed with grilled foods, rice dishes and other savoury meals. It also works well on a mezze table with bread and vegetables. Yoghurt gives it some protein, while the corn contributes carbohydrates and a little fibre. For a lighter version, use plain yoghurt and keep added salt modest.
