This green goddess dressing has the best flavour attributes of any dressing I have ever had. Decadently rich bottom notes are created by making a luscious homemade mayo that’s laced with the flavours of dijon, anchovy and garlic. The fresh top notes come from lemon and loads of fresh herbs including parsley, chives and basil. All of these flavours are tied together by whisking in full fat, tart yogurt. This dressing pairs well with blanched, grilled or boiled vegetables, grilled chicken and fish or a simple green salad.
