1. Make the Dressing
Combine the avocado (scooped from its skin and pit removed), mayonnaise, lime juice, black pepper, chives, mint leaves, garlic, and cilantro in the base of a blender. Blending these ingredients first creates a smooth, creamy base for your dressing. It's important to use ripe avocado for its buttery texture and rich flavor. Transfer the Green Goddess Dressing to a container with a tight-fitting lid. The dressing can be enjoyed immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
The freshest parsley, tarragon, chives, and basil yield a complex flavor profile. Vibrant, aromatic herbs are essential.
Essential for a smooth, emulsified dressing, finely chopping the herbs and incorporating all ingredients.
The base of your dressing should be the best quality for optimal texture and taste.
A mix of lemon juice and a white wine vinegar offers nuanced acidity. Adjust to taste, ensuring it cuts through the richness.
Allow flavors to meld and intensify by resting the dressing in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
