Green goddess dressing
Green Goddess Dressing is a type of salad dressing, notable for its vibrant green color and creamy texture. It originated in the United States and has become a popular choice for salads, dips, and marinades.
History[edit | edit source]
Green Goddess Dressing was first created in the 1920s in San Francisco at the Palace Hotel. The dressing was made as a tribute to the actor George Arliss, who was starring in the play The Green Goddess at the time. The chef at the Palace Hotel, Philip Roemer, is credited with the creation of this dressing.
Ingredients[edit | edit source]
The primary ingredients in Green Goddess Dressing are mayonnaise, sour cream, chervil, chives, anchovy, tarragon, lemon juice, and pepper. The green color of the dressing comes from the use of fresh herbs. Variations of the recipe may include ingredients such as avocado, yogurt, or parsley.
Usage[edit | edit source]
Green Goddess Dressing is commonly used as a dressing for salads, but it can also be used as a dip for vegetables or a marinade for meat. Its creamy texture and tangy flavor make it a versatile condiment that can enhance a variety of dishes.
Popularity[edit | edit source]
The popularity of Green Goddess Dressing has fluctuated over the years. It was particularly popular in the 1970s and 1980s, and has seen a resurgence in recent years as part of the trend towards fresh, homemade dressings and dips.
