Tips
- Use fresh dill whenever possible - it makes a world of difference in flavor compared to dried herbs.
- Let the dip chill for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to fully develop and meld together.
- For the best texture, use full-fat sour cream and mayonnaise for a rich, creamy consistency.
- Experiment with different fresh vegetables for dipping to keep things interesting.
- If you want extra tang, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a dash of Worcestershire sauce.
- Store the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- For a lighter version, you can substitute Greek yogurt for some of the sour cream.
