Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup (120 g / 4.2 oz) plain yogurt
  • ½ cup (115 g / 4.1 oz) mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml / 0.2 fl oz) red wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons (10 ml / 0.3 fl oz) olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) minced fresh dill
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • For a delicious vegan version, simply use a plant-based plain yogurt and your favorite vegan mayonnaise.
  • To create a thinner dressing for salads, whisk in a teaspoon of water or lemon juice at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
  • This dressing tastes even better the next day! Making it ahead of time allows the garlic and dill flavors to fully infuse the creamy base.

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the plain yogurt, mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, and fresh dill.
  2. Whisk until all are smooth and well blended.
  3. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. For best results, chill for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  5. Don't be afraid to swap herbs! Fresh chives, parsley, or even tarragon can be used for a different flavor profile.
