# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It comes together in less time than it takes to find your keys, with ingredients you probably already have.
  • The fresh herbs make it taste bright and alive, nothing like the bottled stuff that's been sitting on a shelf for months.
  • You can adjust the tang, the creaminess, and the seasoning to suit your mood or your crowd.
02 -
  • Fresh herbs make all the difference, dried ones will work in a pinch, but the flavor won't be as lively or layered.
  • Don't skip the resting time in the fridge, the dip tastes flat and one dimensional if you serve it right away.
03 -
  • Chop the herbs as finely as you can so they blend into the dip instead of clumping together in big pieces.
  • Taste the dip after it's been in the fridge, flavors can mellow out, and you might want to add a little more salt or lemon before serving.
