Haydari is a type of yogurt dish similar to a thick cacık, made from certain herbs and spices, combined with garlic and yogurt. It differs from cacık in that the recipe contains no cucumber and calls for strained yogurt or labne. It is served purely as a meze, being more pungently appetizing - by virtue of being saltier, more acidic and of a thicker consistency - than cacık.{{cite web|url=http://turkishfood.about.com/od/CheeseYogurtDairy/r/Strained-Yogurt-With-Garlic-And-Herbs-Is-Classic-Turkish-meze.htm|title=Haydari - Meze With Strained Yogurt, Garlic and Herbs|author=Elizabeth Taviloglu|work=About.com Food|accessdate=5 February 2015|archive-date=10 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160310144039/http://turkishfood.about.com/od/CheeseYogurtDairy/r/Strained-Yogurt-With-Garlic-And-Herbs-Is-Classic-Turkish-meze.htm|url-status=dead}}
