Top tips

  • Choosing Greek yogurt: We recommend 2% for a balance of creaminess and lower fat, but you can use nonfat, full-fat, or flavored yogurt depending on your preference—flavored yogurt will change the final taste.
  • Adjust sweetness: Add an extra tablespoon of honey if you prefer a sweeter dip.
  • Make ahead: The flavors mellow slightly after chilling, so if you make it a few hours ahead, stir before serving to refresh the texture.
