Super delicious, this green goddess dressing (or dip) is made with yogurt and is perfect for dipping vegetables in or enjoying over salads!
A few months ago my sibling-in-laws and I went to a supper club here in Milwaukee. Supper clubs are big in Wisconsin. Think Mad Men style dining – leather booths, old school charm, it’s truly like stepping back in time for a dining experience. The one we went to started the meal by serving a relish tray. It came with a green goddess dressing (something I had heard was a thing of the 60’s) and an array of vegetables for dipping. Radishes were among the vegetables, and since I hadn’t had them since I was a kid, I decided to just try one. OMG so friggin good – the tangy crunchy radish dipped in the green goddess dressing – it was one of the best combinations. I was hooked, I knew I needed more radishes and dip in my life. I’m so in love with radishes and now get them at the farmers market on the weekends, I made these slow roasted chicken tacos with radish slaw and am planing to make another batch for the week ahead!
We went back to the supper club a few weeks later and they brought out the same relish tray with green goddess dressing. Again, I was in love with it. The server mentioned that it had anchovies and lemon and fresh herbs in it.
Anchovies? Eeek, I don’t think I’ve ever liked them, but hello – Caesar salad dressing, I love the stuff! It was so delicious, so I thought I was going to try and recreate the dressing at home. I went to the store and right next the anchovies I found anchovy paste <-something I’d never ever in a million years thought I’d use. Paste seemed a lot more manageable than say, cutting up little anchovies, you know?
I came home and put the ingredients I thought were in the dip into a food processor (I use this one) and processed away, the end result was amazing! This recipe is my take on recreating the dipping sauce I had, so I’m not sure how it varies from what I actually had at the restaurant, all I can tell you is that this dipping sauce/dressing is soooo good!
I’ve served this green goddess dipping sauce at girls nights, brought it over to friends’ houses, made it just to have on hand in the house – every time I serve it people want the recipe, so today I’m sharing how I make green goddess dressing with yogurt. It goes great with fresh veggies and is great for a summertime dip!

Uhm this dip. sounds. amazing. And I love the idea of doing a Mad Men style Supper Club! We have a lot of speakeasy themed things out here but I feel like they need to skip ahead a few decades and bring us into mid-century style 😉 Gorgeous process shots btw! 🙂
The supper clubs around here are definitely old school – it’s like a stepping back in time when one goes to one, it’s very neat! Thank you so much for your lovely compliment 🙂
That place sounds like so much fun!! I do like the taste of anchovies in things, but I just can’t handle the way they look whole in those cans. Paste is definitely the safer option; This dip sounds so good, I will definitely need to give it a try!
Haha, so true, paste is definitely the safer option. I think you’d love this dip 🙂
Super clubs sound so interesting! I haven’t heard of those around here! Not that they aren’t here haha I don’t pay attention to a lot of things! 🙂 Loving this dip!!
Supper clubs are so cool – I’m totally going to have to google if they’re just a Wisconsin thing, it’s not just you, I don’t know either lol. And this dip-omg it’s so good I could eat it every day!
Hi ! I’m not a fan of cilantro and was wondering if this could be left out? Or if there would be a good substitute to use instead?
Hi Deb, that’s a great question! Yes, you can definitely leave out cilantro – in its place I would add a little extra parsley and some green onions 🙂
