# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The Greek yogurt base makes it incredibly creamy without feeling heavy or weighed down like sour cream dips
  • Fresh herbs transform something simple into a dip that guests actually ask for the recipe
02 -
  • Letting the dip chill for at least 30 minutes is not optional it makes such a huge difference in how the flavors develop
  • Fresh herbs are non negotiable here because dried herbs will give you a completely different and much less vibrant result
03 -
  • Grate the garlic on a microplane instead of mincing for a smoother texture and more even flavor distribution
  • Wring out your chopped herbs in a paper towel if they seem wet after washing to prevent the dip from becoming watery
