Made with fresh herbs and a rich, creamy base, this dressing brings a burst of freshness to any dish. In this recipe, we'll show you how to make a delicious and healthy version using avocado, buttermilk, and a blend of fresh herbs.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a blender or food processor, add the avocado, lemon juice, fresh parsley, and basil.
- Pour in the olive oil. This will add smoothness and richness to the dressing.
- Gradually add the buttermilk into the blender. This will give the dressing its creamy texture and tanginess.
- Blend all the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and well combined. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is thoroughly mixed.
- If the dressing is too thick, you can add a small amount of additional buttermilk to reach your desired consistency.
- Taste the dressing and season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve the green goddess dressing immediately or transfer it to a jar with a lid. It can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Tips:
- Make sure to use a ripe avocado for the best texture and flavor.
- If you prefer a thicker dressing, you can reduce the amount of buttermilk or add a little more avocado.
- Feel free to customize the herb mix based on what you have on hand or your personal preferences. For example, you can add cilantro or tarragon for a different flavor profile.
- To make the dressing smoother, you can use a blender or food processor to combine the ingredients.
- For a dairy-free version, you can substitute the buttermilk with a plant-based milk and add a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar.
Congratulations! You've just made a delicious and healthy green goddess dressing. This versatile sauce can elevate your salads, serve as a tasty dip for veggies, or even act as a zesty marinade for meats. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, and enjoy the fresh flavors it brings to your meals.
