Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 1 package of herbs for green sauce *
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 gherkins
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 400 g sour cream
  • 200 g yogurt, 3.5%
  • 100 g mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • e.g. salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 45 minutes; Total time approx. 45 minutes

Odenwald style

Finely chop the herbs and cucumbers and place them in a bowl. Then mix everything with the sour cream, yogurt, and mayonnaise. Season to taste with the remaining ingredients. If the herbs are still too coarse, you can briefly puree the finished sauce again with a hand blender, according to taste. Serve with boiled potatoes and hard-boiled (cold!) eggs. The sauce actually calls for seven herbs, although these vary slightly depending on the season (*these include, for example, cress, tarragon, burnet burnet, parsley, chives, chervil, sorrel, dill, and borage). Therefore, I have listed nine herbs.
