Notes
- For a thick and creamy dressing, it's best to use full-fat versions of the ingredients. It's also a good idea, if the sour cream has some water on top, to carefully pour it out before using.
- You can keep this dressing in the fridge, in an airtight container, for up to five days. Give it another stir before serving, and add a bit more water if it has thickened too much while stored.
