Green Goddess Dressing
Description
This Green Goddess Dressing combines mayonnaise with chopped green onions and basil, providing an herby base. Lemon juice adds acidity, balancing the richness of mayonnaise and sour cream included at the end for creaminess and smooth texture. Garlic and anchovy paste deepen the flavor with savory pungency, while kosher salt and black pepper season throughout. Blending until smooth ensures an even, vibrant sauce that holds well in the refrigerator until use.
The dressing suits salads requiring a creamy, tangy complement, or it can be served as a dip for vegetables or seafood. Its composition highlights fresh herbs and savory umami from anchovies balanced by citrus brightness and creamy textures.

- 1 cup green onions chopped, white and green parts (6 to 7)

- 1/4 cup lemon juice about 2 lemons
- 2 teaspoons garlic chopped, 2 cloves
- 2 teaspoons anchovy paste
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 1 cup sour cream
Instructions
- Place the mayonnaise, scallions, basil, lemon juice, garlic, anchovy paste, salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. Add the sour cream and process just until blended. (If not using immediately, refrigerate the dressing until ready to serve.)
