Tangy Avocado Dressing
Description
This dressing relies on blending all ingredients except olive oil until smooth, then incorporating the oil for a creamy and emulsified texture. Avocado and yogurt combine to provide a thick, velvety base, while lemon juice adds bright acidity. Cumin and garlic contribute savory depth alongside a hint of spice, and salt enhances all flavors.
The use of water adjusts the consistency for versatile uses, allowing it to coat greens or serve as a dip. Refrigerating the dressing in a sealed jar extends freshness for up to three days. Its fresh ingredients and balanced tang make it a flavorful complement in various dishes.
