  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro, mint, and parsley add a bright, flavorful touch to the dressing.
  • Don't over-blend: Over-blending the dressing can make it too thin. Blend until the ingredients are just combined.
  • Taste and adjust: Be sure to taste the dressing before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Use as a marinade: The dressing can be used as a marinade for chicken, fish, or tofu. Simply marinate the protein for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
