Frequently Asked Questions About Sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt
How do you make sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt?
Sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt is made by mixing softened, chopped sun-dried tomatoes into yogurt. Garlic and olive oil are common additions, and a little chopped parsley or walnuts can add texture. Drain the tomatoes well so the meze does not turn watery.
What do you serve with sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt?
Sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt pairs well with warm flatbread, pita, grilled vegetables, or grilled meat. Serve it as part of a mezze spread, or use it as a tangy side for a simple lunch rather than treating it as a dip only.
Can you make sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt ahead of time?
Yes, you can make sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt ahead and refrigerate it in a covered container. The tomato flavor will infuse the yogurt as it rests; stir before serving and add fresh herbs or a little olive oil at the table.
How do you soften sun-dried tomatoes for sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt?
Soften the tomatoes for sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt by soaking them in hot water until pliable, then drain and chop them. Oil-packed tomatoes are already soft, but blot excess oil before mixing so the yogurt stays thick.
Can you make sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt using Greek yogurt?
Yes, Greek yogurt works well in sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt and gives it a thicker, richer texture. If the mixture feels too dense, stir in a spoonful of plain yogurt or a little water until it is easy to scoop.
Why is sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt so salty?
Sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt can taste very salty because some dried tomatoes are cured or packed with added salt. Taste the tomatoes first, rinse or briefly soak them if needed, and avoid seasoning the yogurt with salt until the mixture is combined.
Can you use oil-packed tomatoes in sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt?
Yes, oil-packed tomatoes can be used in sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt without soaking. Drain and chop them, then add olive oil cautiously because the tomatoes already bring oil and can make the finished meze greasy.
What herbs go with sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt?
Parsley, mint, oregano, and thyme all complement sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt. Use one or two rather than several at once, so the herbs do not mask the concentrated tomato flavor; garlic and black pepper are also common seasonings.
How do you keep sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt from becoming watery?
Keep sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt thick by draining softened tomatoes thoroughly and using thick yogurt. Avoid adding the soaking water or excess oil from the tomatoes, and mix shortly before serving if your yogurt releases liquid as it sits.
Can sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt be frozen?
Freezing sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt is not recommended because yogurt can separate and become grainy after thawing. Make a smaller fresh batch instead; the prepared meze keeps better refrigerated in a sealed container and served cold.

What is Sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt?
Sun-dried tomato meze with yogurt is a cool, savoury dip made by mixing chopped sun-dried tomatoes with yogurt. Garlic, olive oil or herbs may be added, though home recipes vary. The tomatoes bring a concentrated, tangy sweetness, while yogurt softens their intensity and gives the meze a creamy texture.
In Turkey, it is typically served cold as part of a meze spread, alongside grilled dishes, or with bread for scooping. It also fits easily into a shared appetizer table elsewhere; serve it with crisp vegetables or flatbread. Yogurt contributes protein and the tomatoes add some fibre: a 100 g portion has 5.6 g of protein. Depending on the tomatoes used, it can be high in sodium, so taste before adding salt and use olive oil sparingly for a lighter version.
