CHEF JOHN'S GREEN GODDESS DRESSING

This creamy, herby, addictively delicious sauce is not only my favorite salad dressing, but is one of my favorite dips as well. You can of course tweak the acidity with more or less lemon, as well as play with the salt and pepper, but please do not change the trio of herbs. The way the parsley and chive play against the sweet tarragon makes this unlike any other herb dressing.

GREEN GODDESS DRESSING

Unlike more complicated versions of green goddess, this one, adapted from the cookbook author Jessica Battilana, comes together quickly in a food processor. Mayonnaise and full-fat Greek yogurt give the dressing richness and tang, while parsley, basil and tarragon lend the springtime perfume of fine herbs. Two anchovy fillets offer salt and a rumor of umami. The recipe is so mouth-smackingly perfect that it doesn't require any adjusting. Serve with this greenest-green salad. Use leftover dressing as a dip, alongside carrots, cucumbers and radishes, or as an accompaniment to grilled fish or chicken.

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs will give your dressing the best flavor. If you can, use herbs that have been freshly picked from your garden or a local farmer's market.
  • Don't over-process the dressing. A few pulses in a blender or food processor is all you need to combine the ingredients. Over-processing will make the dressing too thick and creamy.
  • Taste the dressing before serving. Adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
  • Serve the dressing immediately. Green goddess dressing is best when served fresh. However, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Green goddess dressing is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads, vegetables, and proteins. It is also a great dipping sauce for appetizers. With its bright green color and creamy texture, green goddess dressing is sure to add a pop of flavor to your next meal.
