Ingredients:

  • 16 oz full-fat sour cream
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tbsp toasted dried onion flakes
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh chives, finely minced
  • 1/2 tsp dried parsley

Instructions:

  1. Prep the flakes. Measure 3 tbsp toasted dried onion flakes.
  2. Combine dry spices. In your glass bowl, whisk 1 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp fine sea salt, and 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper.
  3. Add the acid. Pour in 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice to the spice mix.
  4. Fold in cream. Add the 16 oz full fat sour cream to the bowl. Stir until the white is streaked with spices.
  5. Incorporate dried herbs. Sprinkle in 1/2 tsp dried parsley.
  6. Mince the chives. Finely chop 1/4 cup fresh chives. Cut until they look like tiny green confetti.
  7. Final fold. Gently fold the chives into the mixture.
  8. Taste and adjust. Dip a single chip to check the salt level.
  9. Chill time. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Wait until the flakes have softened completely.
  10. Serve. Garnish with a few extra chives before placing on the table.
