I like "Green Goddess" Salad 🥗 Dressing. It adds a nice fresh taste to any Summer toss Green Salad 🥗.
Try adding some Walnuts & Cranberries or Raisins to the Salad 🥗 also 😋 😋.

Green Goddess dressing is my all time favorite dressing after traditional Caesar with egg yolk and anchovies!
When I was pregnant with my son, I attended a party and green goddess dressing was served with a fresh veggie tray. I had never eaten the dressing and fell immediately in love with it. After polishing off the entire veggie tray, we left the wonderful party with the recipe 😉…. our son was born at 1 pm that next day… need I say more??(54 years ago)😁
I loveToni’s segments. I learn so much.
*insert eye roll* Its pathetic you have to trash the originator of this recipe as racist because of his "insensitive" play… which was written and performed over a hundred years ago. Retroactively applying standards of today to life a century in the past reeks of desperation to feign victimhood.
Avocado mutes the flavor of the herbs. I guess what I made when I worked at Lucques in LA was closest to the James Beard recipe: Tarragon, chives, parsley, watercress, and chervil get blended with grape seed oil, a couple of garlic cloves, and a couple of anchovy fillets. This mixture gets folded into mayonnaise. It is finished with alternating additions of Champagne vinegar and salt until the flavor "pops". And when it pops it is delicious.
My chief reason for growing some of my herbs, like French tarragon, is their use in homemade dressings like green goddess. I've used Hellmans mostly but also sour cream, Greek yogurt, and avocado. They're all delicious and I'm sure to have at least 2-3 on hand so frequently I mix them. We like the dressing made thick as a dip also.
Kinda pointless to do a post about green goddess dressing without, a recipe for, you know, green goddess dressing.
Can the return of rumaki be far behind?
The history was interesting but a recipe would have been a welcome addition.
C'mon…does anyone really remember the last time they had this dressing? I can remember when I was younger, much younger, it was popular. While I haven't scanned the aisles for it, is it still available? No matter, an interesting topic, thx for the memories!
So WHERE'S the RECIPE? 🤷🏽 What is this, CLICKBAIT? Apparently so. 😡👎🏽
I'm a child from the sixties and I remember my grandmother and my mom making this in ordering it at a restaurant back-in-the-day always was good and thank you for reprising it because I definitely will be making this ASAP good to know that there are people out there who remember what was once a long time ago was so good bring it back,
Not to mention I have an original Betty Crocker cookbook that I got when I was quite young and it has the recipe in it
Yes – I liked this but would have enjoyed it more if you gave us a recipe for the dressing. I've not made it from scratch before. Still love your channel!!!
that was very stupid to publish this. minus the Wikipedia restatement, it is entirely worthless.
My favorite use of Green Goddess Dressing (luv it!) is a simple one. Thinly sliced onions, particularly Vidalia onions, and thinly sliced cucumbers marinated together overnight in Green Goddess makes for an excellent summer side dish. This is a mainstay in my fridge through the summer.
Thank you for this history info. I love these segments.
Why do you feel it is necessary to insinuate your current values on previous centuries? It's not.
Stay woke, my friends.
I’m all good about history.. that was a toe in the water.. please continue and bring us viewers more!
I had no idea of the dressing's origins. I had it on a salad that I ordered with a food prep subscription and really liked it. I just thought it was made from some hippy dippy recipe.
Pretty much everything today is racially insensitive in some shape, form or fashion.
Lot of triggered weirdos in the comments. A play from nearly 100 years ago was mentioned as being kind of racist – that's a simple little fact. What a strange reaction: to get mad over such a minor thing you learned from a HISTORIAN.
Looked for some Green Goddess today to make the recent chicken recipe-I didn't want to make my own. Apparently no one makes it anymore. So…I will use your recipe and make it from scratch.
EDIT: here is the link to the recipe

I watch Cook's Country to learn how to better prepare and enjoy food, not to be lectured about racism or other woke agendas.
America's Test Kitchen, stick to what makes your show work: COOKING. And leave the political crap to CNN.
