Notes

 

  • Fresh green onions are the star of this recipe, so use crisp, bright bunches for the best flavor.
  • If your onions are especially strong, soak the sliced onions in cold water for 10 minutes before adding them to the dip.
  • A squeeze of fresh lemon brightens the entire dip without making it taste lemony.
