Easy Dill Dip Recipe (Ready in 5 Minutes)
This easy dill dip recipe is so easy to make; it’s ready in just 5 minutes! With either fresh dill or dried dill, serve this dill dip with vegetables, crackers, and chips.
It’s ironic that this dill dip recipe doesn’t live on my website, considering that I’ve made it almost weekly for the past decade-plus.
This dill dip is my husband’s absolute favorite dip, and he requests it almost every Sunday afternoon to be enjoyed with veggies throughout the week.
As a chef, I love that it takes mere minutes to put together, and as a dietitian, I love that this dill dip means my husband (and daughter!) will easily down an entire platter full of raw veggies in one sitting.
It’s so much better than ranch dressing, and if you like a creamy, cooling dip for your vegetables, then this dill dip recipe is for you!
Ingredient Notes
When I say this dill dip recipe is easy, I mean it’s easy.
Five ingredients and five minutes– that’s it! You can use any mayo or sour cream for this one, including dairy-free versions!
My mother-in-law swears by Miracle Whip for this recipe, but I really dislike the tang of Miracle Whip so I use regular mayo. However, you can use whatever brand you like.
I use dried dill because I always have it on hand, but in the summer months, when my garden is growing, I will add in fresh dill instead. In that case, I do about 1/4 cup of chopped fresh dill.
I also like to add in celery salt in place of regular salt and recommend that if you have it. Celery salt gives a slightly umami flavor and a subtle herbal saltiness that amplifies the other ingredients.
The horseradish also adds a nice, gentle zip to the dill dip. You can add to taste!
How to Make Dill Dip
Mix Together All Ingredients
Really, this dip couldn’t be easier! Whisk together all of the ingredientsu002du002d mayo, sour cream, dill, horseradish, and celery salt.
Serve
I prefer to place the dip in the fridge for a few hours to allow the flavors to meld, but this dill dip is also great as soon as you make it! Serve with veggies, carrots, cucumbers, and tomatoes are my favorites.
Tips for Success
You can use either fresh or dried dill for this dip recipe– up to you! I almost always use dried as I always have it around, but fresh dill also works. If you use fresh dill, then you’ll use more than dried dill.
For best results, let the dip chill for 1-2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.
