Chef's Notes
Do not skip the 20-minute resting period! Raw garlic needs time to mellow into the yogurt, otherwise, it will aggressively ambush your tastebuds.
Pro Tip
Always use room-temperature yogurt so it emulsifies properly with the olive oil without seizing up.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Do not commit the culinary crime of using flavored or sugar-laden yogurt, unless you genuinely wish to ruin your gyros with a sickeningly sweet mistake, and for the love of the culinary arts, do not drown the sauce in raw garlic or it will bite back with the wrath of a thousand suns.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Oh, wonderful! Another recipe that tells us to 'measure with our hearts.' My heart usually tells me to add the entire clove of garlic and a pint of oil, but I suppose the recipe's suggestion of a 'tiny bit' is meant to keep the royal court from fainting at dinner.
The Culinary Science
Acid from the lemon juice breaks down delicate milk proteins in the yogurt, creating a smoother texture while enhancing perceived saltiness.
