Creamy Spring Onion & Radish Dip – A Fresh Spring Favorite

 

Radishes are one of my all-time favorite vegetables—I’m rarely without a bunch in the fridge. That crisp, peppery crunch is irresistible whether I’m snacking straight from the fridge or tossing them into salads, from green, to potato, they’re fantastic in chicken salad. Every spring I attempt to grow my own, usually fail spectacularly, and end up happily stocking up at the local farm stand or getting delish French breakfast radishes from Melissa’s Produce.

 One of the best ways to enjoy them? This bright, creamy dip. It’s light, tastes like pure spring, and pairs beautifully with just about anything. I’ve yet to meet someone who doesn’t love it!

Creamy Spring Onion & Radish Dip 

¾ c. sour cream

½ c. Duke’s mayonnaise

1 t. Ranch seasoning mix

⅛ t. kosher salt

⅛ t. freshly ground black pepper

1½ c. radishes, very thinly sliced (mandoline works best)

½ c. chopped scallions

1 T. snipped fresh chives*

 In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper until smooth.

Gently fold in the thinly sliced radishes and chopped scallions.

 Cover and chill for 1–2 hours so the flavors can meld beautifully.

 Just before serving, sprinkle with fresh chives.

 Serve with crackers, tortilla chips, pita chips, fresh crudités, or slices of crusty bread. It also makes a fantastic spread for sandwiches and wraps!

 *Dry, if you must.
