I saved this years ago - the original and the new recipes. Think I will make this up for tomorrow's dinner. My preference, and what my family always made, is the original recipe with the addition of tarragon.

I adore Green Goddess and those both sound amazing...

I've been using Penzey's Green Goddess mix for years and need to step up with that amazing new fresh herb version (of course I'll always love the mayo-sour cream original smileys/smile.gif
