Ingredients:

  • 2 cups Plain Greek Yogurt (Full-fat 5% or 10%)
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 Teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh Dill, finely chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Chives, finely chopped
  • 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Freshly Cracked Black Pepper

Instructions:

  1. Finely chop the fresh dill and chives, aiming for a fine mince so they incorporate seamlessly into the yogurt base.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, and extra virgin olive oil.
  3. Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, Kosher salt, and black pepper directly over the yogurt mixture.
  4. Add the chopped dill and chives to the bowl.
  5. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, gently yet thoroughly mix all the ingredients until the herbs and spices are evenly distributed and the dip has a uniform colour. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Taste a small sample. Adjust seasoning now: add a pinch more salt if the flavor feels dull, or a squeeze more lemon juice if it needs more zing.
  7. Transfer the finished dip into an airtight container. Refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes to allow the spices to hydrate and the fresh herb flavors to fully infuse the yogurt.
  8. Give the dip one final stir before serving alongside crudités, pita chips, or use as a spread.
