Can I use something besides sour cream?

While sour cream creates a rich and creamy dip, you can also use mayonnaise or Greek yogurt for part or all of the sour cream. If you'd like a thinner dip or dill dressing, you can adjust the consistency by whisking in buttermilk .

Can I use fresh dill instead of dried?

Dried dill tends to be the most economical, but if you grow your own dill weed or find it at a great price, it's a delicious upgrade. Typically in recipes, you will use three times more fresh herb as you would dried herb. So, in this instance, you would use 1 1/2 tablespoons (or 4 1/2 teaspoons) of fresh dill instead of the dried.

What do you eat with dill dip?

This dill dip comes together easily and is just fantastic for dipping fresh vegetables such as carrot sticks, bell pepper, celery, and cucumber. It's delicious for dipping potato chips, tortilla chips, and crackers as well. But, don't stop there! This dill-infused sour cream is also a great sauce for grilled fish, baked potatoes, or roast potatoes.

How long does homemade dill dip last?

Homemade dill dip is good, stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, for up to four days.

Sounds yummy. My family will eat raw veggies without a dip, but it’s nice to make a dip every so often. I will have to try this next time.

I made this for my family’s stay-at-home New Year’s Eve with Siggi’s brand nonfat plain skyr (Icelandic yogurt) which is thick and rich feeling. It is delicious, with just a bit of tang.

I don’t know what I did wrong. It came out terrible. Couldn’t taste anything but overpowering onion. It was in desperate need of salt. I hate to throw it out and be wasteful. ?

  Possible that some of the seasonings were a little old? Just season to taste, adding more salt or other spices until you like it. If you don’t want to use it as a dip, you can also use it to top potatoes or stir into mashed potatoes.

I made this last night and my husband and I loved it. We served it with veggies and Ritz crackers. The toddlers didn’t care for it, but there’s not much that they like these days.

This does sound good. Have you done much with Greek yogurt? My sister-in-law uses it for things like this and just loves it. Do you think it would work for this? Any pros and cons that you know of for using Greek yogurt? Thanks!

  It would be great with Greek yogurt – tons more protein, too.
