Fresh herbs give this classic dip, adapted from America's Test Kitchen, its clean, fresh flavor and distinctive color; do not substitute dried herbs. For an accurate measurement of boiling water, bring a full kettle of water to a boil, then measure out the desired amount. Season with additional lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste before serving.

This Greek goddess dip is stunningly verdant and has a bright herby flavor. The Greek strain in this dressing comes from using dill in place of watercress. Make it and watch it do a disappearing act on vegetables, pita chips or whatever conduit you can dream up.

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, basil, and tarragon add a vibrant flavor to the dip. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount since they are more concentrated.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables in the dip should be cooked just until they are tender-crisp. Overcooking them will make them mushy and bland.
  • Chill the dip before serving: Chilling the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving allows the flavors to meld and develop. This also makes the dip thicker and creamier.
  • Serve with a variety of dippers: Green goddess dip is delicious with a variety of dippers, such as raw vegetables, crackers, pita chips, and tortilla chips.

Conclusion:

Extra Green Green Goddess Dip is a delicious and versatile dip that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, snack, or even a light meal. It's packed with fresh herbs, vegetables, and Greek yogurt, making it a healthy and flavorful choice. Whether you're serving it at a party or enjoying it at home, this dip is sure to be a hit.
