Tips:
- Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh dill, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried dill.
- If you don't have heavy cream, you can use whole milk or half-and-half instead. Just be aware that the sauce will be thinner.
- To make a gluten-free sauce, use gluten-free soy sauce or tamari.
- To make a vegan sauce, omit the butter and sour cream. You can use olive oil or vegan butter instead of butter, and you can use a vegan sour cream substitute.
- This sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just be sure to reheat it gently before serving.
