Frequently Asked Questions
How long does yogurt dip last in the fridge?
Stored in an airtight container, this dip stays fresh for 4-5 days. The flavor actually improves after a day as the garlic and herbs infuse.
Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek?
Greek yogurt is preferred because it is thicker and higher in protein. Regular yogurt will make the dip runny. If using regular, strain it through cheesecloth first.
Is yogurt dip healthier than sour cream dip?
Yes. Greek yogurt has more protein and less fat than sour cream, making this dip significantly lower in calories while still being creamy and satisfying.
