Ingredients

Sour Cream – Sour cream makes the base of this recipe; use full-fat or light. Make it at home using my easy sour cream recipe or buy a tub.
You can also replace sour cream with plain Greek yogurt to make the dip healthier.
Lemon Juice – Freshly squeezed lemon juice gives a lovely tanginess to the dip.
You can replace lemon juice with lime juice too. Keep in consideration that lime juice is tangier than lemon juice.
Worcestershire Sauce – It gives the sauce a mix of sweet, spicy, sour, and umami flavors.
Seasonings – You will need a mix of seasonings such as dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. You can adjust the seasonings depending on your taste.
For a more refreshing flavor, you can add some fresh herbs such as green onions (scallions), parsley, thyme, cilantro, etc.
You can replace smoked paprika with cayenne pepper too.
Extra seasonings like taco seasoning or ranch seasoning can also be added to the recipe for a flavor change.
