AKA Garlic Dressing of Doom
Servings: About 500 ml / 2 cups
Servings: About 500 ml / 2 cups
Ingredients
- subheading: Green Goddess Base:
- 2 Tbs tarragon vinegar - Alternatively, add 1 tsp dry tarragon to 2 Tbs of vinegar and let it soak for at least 5 minutes before use.
- 15 gr of coarsely chopped garlic. This is equivalent to about 5 tsp or ⅓ of a large bulb of garlic. Adjust to match your taste.
- 20 gr of coarsely chopped parsley. This is about ¼ cup of fresh parsley, tightly packed. You want mostly leaves, not stems
- 20 gr of coarsely chopped green onion. This is roughly two green onions.
- 1 Tbs lemon juice - The juice of about ½ of a lemon.
- 12 gr anchovy paste - this is about 3 fillets, minced - We've not tried it, but some folks recommend using ¼ tsp of capers instead.
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper, freshly ground or to taste
- subheading: Green Goddess bulk ingredients:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup yogourt
Steps
- subheading: For the base:
- Put all of the Green Goddess Base ingredients in a small food processor, and blend until smooth.
- Or mince garlic, green onions, anchovies or capers, and parsley.
- Stir into the minced ingredients the vinegar, lemon juice, and anchovy paste (if using)
- Either set the base aside for later, or use immediately.
- subheading: To make the dressing:
- Mix the three bulk ingredients in a bowl with the base, and stir until everything is smoothly incorporated.
- For best results allow the flavors to marry for at least 1 hour before use.
Notes
- You can freeze the "base" in portions. We froze it in ¼ batch servings. It needs 2 tablespoons of each bulk ingredient added to each ¼ portion of base to turn it into dressing.
- The thawed "base" can also be used to make a dip. Add some sour cream and / or yogourt to the defrosted base. Taste to see how much of each you want to add.
- This dressing gets stronger and thicker when stored in the refrigerator. We usually add a bit of EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) to thin it, when it gets too thick. If it gets too potent, try adding a little of one or more of the bulk ingredients.
