Ingredients

• 400 g Plain Greek yogurt ( well chilled )
• 1 piece Chives fresh ( finely chopped )
• 1 piece Garlic ( very finely minced )
• 0.5 piece Citrus limon (L.) Burm. f. ( juiced )
• 2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 pinch Fleur de sel
• 1 pinch Black pepper ground

Instructions

1. Smooth the yogurt

   Pour the yogurt into a mixing bowl. Whisk vigorously by hand until the texture is perfectly smooth, glossy, and free of any lumps.

2. Chop the herbs

   Wash and dry the chives thoroughly. Slice them very finely with a knife. You want regular bits that will infuse their flavor throughout the mixture.

3. Season and finish

   Incorporate the pressed garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Mix to bind the oil with the yogurt until completely homogeneous.

Chef's tips

• Do not prepare the sauce too far in advance to keep the chives crunchy.
• If the yogurt releases water, a simple stir will restore its texture.

Storage
