When our gardens overflow with dill, the aroma can be intoxicating. Dill is said to help with insomnia, digestion, bone health, manage diabetes, prevent excess gas, can calm hiccups and even stimulate menstruation, and boosts your immunity.
So what can you do with dill? Create an easy sauce to put on top of roasted vegetables, chicken or fish.
1 bunch dill, roughly chopped
1/2 onion, diced
1 tsp olive oil
2 cups sour cream (or dairy free cream cheese)
Heat a pan on medium heat, add oil. Carmalize diced onion until golden brown. Do not try to rush this process, burnt onions are not what you want in this dish. Once the onions are done releasing their sugar and turning a beautiful soft brown, add your roughly chopped dill to the pan until they become bright green, maybe 1 minute.
Remove from pan and add to food processor. Add sour cream and blend. If you do not have a food processor, add by hand mixing thoroughly. This will create a thick dip for chips. If you wish to have a thinner sauce, add a milk of your choice until it is the desire thickness.
