You can use 'lite' sour cream and mayonnaise, but the flavor seems a bit flatter.
I made this last night with "Greek Souzoukaklia" (from this site). It was the perfect compliment to the meat! I did have to make some changes- I didn't have anchovies,a nd I played with the fresh herbs a bit. It was wonderful!

This made an excellent salad dressing simply thinned out with some buttermilk. I scaled this down to eight servings, and used 1/2 tsp. of anchovy paste for the one lonely anchovy. I’m not fond of tarragon, so I skipped it as well as the parsley, preferring instead to use some green onion and a handful of basil. This is crisp and fresh tasting, great on a tossed green salad.
I made only half of this, but because I only had a little fresh tarragon left, I had to use a part of the dried version. I also used 1/2 teaspoon of anchovy paste rather than the fillet. The first night I used it as a salad dressing, and it didn't go over that well. The next night I used it as it as written---a dip----and it was a good success! This will definitely be a repeat for company! Thanks for this recipe!
Great. I made this as an additional sauce to remoulade to go with crab cakes, shrimp and artichokes.
This was a big hit at the party! I was asked to bring a dip to a party and I decided to try something new rather than the standard sour cream and onion dip. The dip was light and refreshing. Those fresh herbs were just the thing for a refreshing summer taste. Every last bit of dip was eaten and I was complimented by almost everyone. I did make sure the dip had at least four hours to sit in fridge so the flavors could develop. I grated the garlic rather than mincing it. This gave it quite a bit of extra garlic punch. I think next time I will use one clove of garlic rather than two if I’m grating the garlic again. I served it in a small bread bowl with veggies and pretzels. I also garnished the plate edible flowers. I’m really glad the dip tasted as good as the plate looked.
This was really, really good. I made it and after tasting, added more garlic , anchovies and parsley. I only had limes available and that juice was was the perfect finishing touch. Yummy stuff on grilled chicken!
