The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream and mayonnaise.

    About 1 min

  2. 2

    Whisk the mixture until it is smooth and there are no lumps.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Using a whisk helps incorporate air and makes the dip feel lighter.

  3. 3

    Add the dried dill, dried parsley, dried onion flakes, onion powder, celery salt, and black pepper to the bowl.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: If you have fresh dill and parsley, you can use three times the amount called for, finely chopped.

  4. 4

    Stir well to ensure all the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the dip.

    About 1 min

  5. 5

    Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the dried herbs to rehydrate and the flavors to meld.

    About 30 min

    Cook’s note: For the best flavor, let the dip rest for several hours or even overnight.

  6. 6

    Give the dip a final stir before serving chilled.
