Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise (Recommend: Best foods or Hellman's)
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt, whole-milk
  • 1 Tbsp Fresh lime juice (Add slowly and taste)
  • 1 pinch fine salt

Method
 

  1. Combine mayonnaise and plain yogurt in a bowl. Whisk until completely smooth with no streaks.
  2. Add lime juice slowly while whisking. The mixture will thin slightly.
  3. Add cold water, one teaspoon at a time, until the sauce holds its shape but drizzles easily. Not runny, not thick like straight yogurt.
  4. Add a pinch of salt. Stir to combine.
Rest
  1. Transfer to an airtight container or squeeze bottle.
  2. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. Overnight is best.
  3. Stir or shake before serving.
