The Grossy Goddess Dressing

The very popular Green Goddess dressing was famously invented in San Francisco and is a creamy mix of herbs like tarragon and chives, tangy dairy, tart lemon juice and my favorite: anchovies! I am excited to announce that I have given the classic GG the Grossy spin, using my favorite herbs like basil, parsley and mint to take it to a new place! Brooklyn, to be exact. It’s delicious on everything, especially this gigantic salad I will be eating for the entirety of 2022!
