# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Greek yogurt creates the same creamy tang as sour cream but with way more protein and less guilt
  • Fresh herbs make all the difference—no dusty dried blends can compare to the brightness of just-chopped dill and chives
  • Ready in ten minutes and gets even better after a day in the fridge, so its perfect for meal prep
02 -
  • The flavor completely transforms after that thirty-minute rest in the fridge, so dont skip it or youll wonder what all the fuss is about
  • Using a microplane to grate your garlic instead of mincing distributes the flavor more evenly so you dont hit spicy pockets
  • Room-temperature yogurt mixes more easily than cold straight from the fridge, so pull it out ten minutes before you start
03 -
  • Roll your lemon on the counter before juicing to break down the internal membranes—youll get way more juice without squeezing harder
  • If the garlic flavor feels too sharp right after mixing, trust the process and let it rest in the fridge
  • Dip your measuring spoon in hot water before measuring honey or sticky ingredients if you add any sweeteners, and itll slide right out
