Notes
Fresh versus Dried Herbs: Fresh herbs are best in this recipe, but if you only have dried herbs you can substitute by using half the amount listed in the recipe.
Different Flavors: You can literally use any other herbs you love to change up the flavor of this creamy sauce. I've used fresh dill, tarragon, and cilantro (and probably others, too) and like every flavor I've accidentally created!
Lemon Selection: Fresh lemon juice makes a noticeable difference compared to bottled versions, providing brighter acidity and more complex citrus notes.
Spice Level: The red pepper flakes provide just a hint of heat without overwhelming the herb flavors, but you can omit them entirely for a milder version.
Storage: Store it covered in the refrigerator for up to a week.
