What is This Ranch Dip Like

• Difficulty – This dip is the easiest recipe! It doesn’t require any special equipment or cooking at all. It comes together quickly and uses just a handful of ingredients.
• Taste – I’d probably describe this dip as creamy yet fresh . The creamy texture comes from the combination of sour cream and mayonnaise. And the freshness from the abundance of fresh herbs.
• Serving – This is the perfect dip for a vegetable platter and makes just more than a cup serving. It would probably serve between 8 – 10 people as a dip at a party.

Recipe Tips

• Make in advance – This recipe is best made in advance. In fact, it does need to be chilled for an hour before serving. The chilling time allows the dip to firm up and set.
• Finely chop herbs – It’s best to chop the fresh parsley and the fresh chives as small as you can. You are looking to completely spread them through the dip without having having any large pieces. This will not only give an overall better flavour, but a better texture as well.

Substitutions

• Mayonnaise – I used full fat mayonnaise for this recipe. If you are looking to lighten the recipe, you can use low fat mayonnaise or even Greek yogurt. Keep in mind this will affect the taste a little
• Sour cream – Sour cream can be substituted by using the same amount of heavy cream and whisking in 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Just let it sit for about 10 minutes and it can be used the same as sour cream.
• Add you own spin – Like many dips, you can change flavours to suit your own taste buds. Feel free to add a little mustard, lemon juice and or zest. You can add a little bit of spice by adding a few crushed chili flakes. Feel free to up the garlic to give it more of a punch.
