SORREL GREEN-GODDESS DRESSING



Sorrel Green-Goddess Dressing image

While green goddess is traditionally made with chervil, chives, or tarragon, sorrel is an excellent stand-in. The verdant herb adds a distinctive tart, tangy flavor to the creamy dressing. Serve alongside Whole Coal-Roasted Vegetables or Grilled Whole Fish with Lemon and Thyme.

CHEF JOHN'S GREEN GODDESS DRESSING



Chef John's Green Goddess Dressing image

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.

BUTTERMILK GREEN GODDESS DRESSING



Buttermilk Green Goddess Dressing image

A classic of the West Coast, this dressing was created in the 1920s by San Francisco's Palace Hotel in honor of a play by the same name. With buttermilk standing in for sour cream, my "Southern" version is light, tangy, and chock-full of green herbs. It's the quintessential spring and summer dressing, and because it's all about using the freshest herbs-whether dill, chervil, sorrel, or cilantro-I almost never make it the same way twice.

Yield makes about 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup well-shaken buttermilk
1/4 cup your favorite or Homemade Mayonnaise (page 280)
1 small Kirby cucumber, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Juice of 1/2 lime
4 or 5 fresh basil or celery leaves
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the buttermilk, mayonnaise, cucumber, chives, tarragon, mustard, lime juice, and basil in a blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to use, or for up to 1 week.
  • Think of this dressing as a backdrop for whatever herbs and light greens are in season. Herbs like dill, oregano, marjoram, thyme, and parsley add personality and flavor while spinach adds a pop of green; peppery arugula and watercress add delicate heat; and lemony sorrel is refreshingly tart. To make an even lighter version, substitute plain low-fat yogurt for the mayonnaise.

¼ cup chopped green onion
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon vegetable oil
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

Tips:

  • Use fresh sorrel leaves: Fresh sorrel leaves have a bright, lemony flavor that is perfect for this dressing. If you can't find fresh sorrel, you can use arugula or spinach as a substitute, but the flavor will be slightly different.
  • Don't over-process the dressing: A few pulses in the food processor or blender is all you need to combine the ingredients. Over-processing will make the dressing too thick and creamy.
  • Taste the dressing before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed: The perfect balance of flavors in this dressing is subjective, so taste it and adjust the amount of lemon juice, salt, and pepper to your liking.
  • Serve the dressing immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use: This dressing is best served fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Use the dressing on salads, grilled vegetables, or as a marinade for chicken or fish: This dressing is versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes.

Conclusion:

With its vibrant green color and tangy, lemony flavor, this sorrel green goddess dressing is a delicious and healthy addition to any meal. It's easy to make and can be used in a variety of dishes. So next time you're looking for a new way to dress up your salad, grilled vegetables, or chicken, give this sorrel green goddess dressing a try. You won't be disappointed!
