Kevin,
Going back through my notes, here's the one I noted that I liked the best. Two comments I made : "Quite strong on the herbs, especially after sitting a while" and "Substituted anchovy paste rather than real anchovies". I remember finding a tube of anchovy paste, so I was using that rather than buying a can of anchovies just to use a couple of fillets during my "experiments"
I also note than some of the recipies I have don't even use anchovies at all, and 1 uses avocado ! That would certainly give it the "Green" part (didn't try that one)....
Anyway, here's what I liked the best :
Green Goddess Dressing
From Food Networks Kitchens
3 anchovy filets, soaked in cold water for 5 minutes, dried, and coarsely chopped
3/4 cup prepared or homemade mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh chives
2 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh tarragon leaves
3/4 teaspoon finely chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon minced shallots
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt plus more
Freshly ground black pepper
Combine the anchovies, mayonnaise, sour cream, chives, parsley, tarragon, basil, shallots, lemon juice, and the 1/4-teaspoon of salt in a blender. Puree to make a smooth dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Use immediately or store, covered, in the refrigerator, for up to 2 days.
