Why I ā¤ļø it

Avocado is one of our favorite ingredients, a very popular side dish in our kitchen, inexpensive, and widely available. You will almost certainly love this avocado dip. It's a perfect avocado sauce for empanadas.

My favorite part is that the sour cream keeps the avocado from blackening, and this creamy avocado sauce has lasted over 24 hours without spoiling or changing color.

Top tips

  • If you don't have garlic salt, mix ¼ teaspoon salt with ¼ teaspoon garlic powder.
  • There are two possible ways to make this sauce: blend it until it is very smooth and has a creamy consistency, or leave it with a little texture.
  • Other possible alterations are to use onion powder instead of garlic if you don't like the taste of garlic. You can add some hot chili flakes if you want a touch of spice.
  • You can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for a thicker sauce with a creamy texture.
  • For storage, place in an airtight container, place a piece of plastic wrap touching the avocado crema dip, and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Storing for longer will affect the flavor and texture.

      The notes were correct, and there was a typo in the list, it's garlic SALT. Thanks for letting me know.
