Ingredients

  • ¾ cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt or ¼ teaspoon of any other salt, including Morton kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic granules or powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion granules or powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
  • Pinch cayenne pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chives minced, divided

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl, add the sour cream, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, garlic granules, onion granules, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, and one tablespoon of minced chives.
  2. Mix with a rubber spatula until all the ingredients are fully combined and the dip is smooth and fluffy.
  3. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and top it with the remaining chives.
  4. Serve the dip immediately, or let it rest for 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • I like the texture and flavor of garlic and onion granules better than the powders. However, if what you have on hand is the powders, that's fine too.
  • If you like spicy food, feel free to increase the cayenne to ¼ teaspoon. 
  • For the creamiest texture, drain the liquid from the top of the sour cream after you open the container.
  • You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days. Remove the dip from the fridge 30 minutes before serving it. I don't recommend freezing this dip.
