This sounds like an odd combination, but the sweetness of the almonds sneaks out beneath the tanginess of the dill and yogurt.
1/4c raw whole almonds
1 1/2c plain Greek yogurt
1/3 c Ultra Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil (ask if we have an oil with notes of anise in our current selection)
1 good sized clove garlic
3T finely chopped fresh dill
2 T Sicilian Lemon Balsamic (or fresh squeezed lemon)
1/2 tsp salt
1. Put almonds in a food processor and pulse till texture of bread crumbs. A heavy storage bag and a rolling pin works well too.
2. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, and serve with vegetables, crackers or bread. Consistency can be altered with addition of more olive oil.
3. Refrigerate and store by covering with a drizzle of the olive oil to keep from drying out. A piece of plastic wrap on the surface of the dip works also. Warm or bring to room temp before reserving.
