Ingredients

  • ¾ cup mayonnaise

  • cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ¼ cup dill
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon celery seeds
  • 1-2 teaspoons honey
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Thoroughly whisk mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, minced garlic, celery seeds, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Adjust seasonings to taste with more lemon and salt. Store in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to use.

Notes

  • Always wash fresh dill before you use it. Put it in a strainer and run water over it to remove any dirt or debris, then transfer the dill to a clean dish towel and pat it dry.
  • You can remove dill leaves before chopping, but there's really no need as long as the stalks are tender. I look for bunches of fresh dill on more petite stalks at the grocery store and then chop it all up, stems and all, for this sauce.
  • Minced garlic, celery seeds, and honey are all optional in this recipe, but I highly recommend adding them if you have them on hand. They will add new depths of flavor to an already delicious sauce!
  • Please keep in mind that the nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary significantly based on the products used in the recipe.
