Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, chopped)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and mayonnaise. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Add the lemon juice, honey, and Dijon mustard to the bowl. Stir until fully incorporated.
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the spices.
If using fresh parsley, stir it in at this stage for a fresh herby flavor.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning as needed (e.g., add an extra pinch of salt or a dab more honey for sweetness).
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, give the dressing a quick stir. Drizzle over your favorite salad, or use as a dip for vegetables or chips.
