I love that there is no sugar in this (most recipes I've seen for it have some added, but your recipe proves it's not necessary!). A Green Goddess dressing is soooo good, I can't wait to try this homemade version...thanks, marky.

and delicious, it was! :) I put the parsley, chives, anchovies, vinegar and lemon juice in my processor, then added all that to the sour cream/mayo and added fresh ground pepper last, to taste. Wonderful served on a leaf lettuce salad with cucumbers and cherry tomatoes. :)

I still can find Green Goddess in our area.. but I like homemade.. this is different than mine! So I have to make it! I think yours might be creamier! Great post!

Yes! I love Green Goddess dressing. And yea, I would use the paste instead, I always do in my dressings, because I like the flavour but I don't like the fish.

They still sell it in TX. I bet this is better. Thanks. By the way could you use anchovie paste instead of the actual fish?
