This recipe is very forgiving – you can use different herbs, including mint and cilantro, more or less lemon, or add your unique blend of spices to spruce it up.
The thickness of the dip can also be adjusted by adding more or less liquid. Once it reaches your desired consistency, just be sure to taste and season as needed.
