Recipe Tips:

Fresh dill is ideal, of course, and you can usually buy it at farmers markets in spring - or in little plastic trays in the supermarket for lots of money! If you're very lucky, you have dill in your garden, or know somebody who does

You won't get the same fresh flavor using dried dill, but feel free to substitute fresh parsley or basil for a different taste sensation.

If the sauce is too stiff to pour after chilling, thin with 1 - 2 Tbsp non-dairy milk
