Notes

Amber’s Inside Tips for Perfect Green Goddess Dressing:
• Always wash and dry your herbs well — if they’re too wet, the dressing can turn watery. Pat them dry with a clean towel before blending.
• Roughly chop your herbs first — this helps them blend faster and more evenly.
• When using your blender, always start with the lid securely in place, and use the pulse setting first. Stop and scrape down the sides a few times to help everything blend smoothly — never reach into the blender while it’s plugged in!
• Add the cream at the end so you can control how thick or thin you want the dressing. For salads, a thinner pour works best; for dipping or spreading, leave it thicker.
• This dressing is freshest in the first few days — store it in an airtight container in the fridge and give it a good stir before using.
