Sastojci

1/2 cup buttermilk

1/2 cup mayonnaise (I use light mayo)

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup salsa verde or green enchilada sauce (see note) (Hayley likes Goya brand)

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (from about 1 medium lime)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried parsley

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Pinch of dried dill (about 1/8 teaspoon)

Pinch of salt (I use coarse, kosher salt)

Pinch of black pepper (I use coarsely ground black pepper)

1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro

1 green onion (white and green parts coarsely chopped, or small bunch of chives)

Upute

Combine all the ingredients in a blender and process until smooth. Thin with additional buttermilk, milk, or lime juice, if you want to adjust the consistency.

Refrigerate until ready to serve (the taste gets better with time - it can be made several days in advance).

Bilješke

Substitutions: the whole buttermilk + mayo + sour cream lineup is the profile I prefer for the best flavor, but you could try changing it up (use all sour cream, sub in Greek yogurt, more buttermilk, etc). Just keep in mind the flavor/consistency might change a bit.

Salsa: salsa verde (green salsa) can vary in spiciness, so make sure you use a brand that you already know you enjoy the taste and heat level of. I like Herdez or Trader Joe’s (both have a slight kick). This homemade green enchilada sauce also works great in this recipe.
