How to make Dill Dip

Now, just so you know, this recipe will make 1 cup of dill dip, so if you need more, you'll want to double, triple, or quadruple the recipe!
With all that said, let's not waste any more time, let's get cooking. Or, erm, mixing!
Step 1: Mix the Ingredients
First, if you haven't already, measure out all of the ingredients, and then add them to a small serving bowl or mixing bowl.
Next, give everything a thorough mix with a spoon until the ingredients combine into the smooth dill dip.
Step 2: Serve the Dill Dip

How to Store Dill Dip
If you have any dill dip left over - or want to make it ahead of time to serve later in the day - you can store the dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a couple of weeks. Really it'll stay good until the date that the sour cream you're using expires.
Also, for what it's worth, I actually think the dill dip tastes even better if you make it ahead of time and let it refrigerate for a few hours. Just make sure you give it a good stir before serving!
