Green goddess dressing likely originated in the 1920s, created by a hotel chef in San Francisco. Famed for its vivid green hue and bold, bright flavours, it's been a favourite salad dressing ever since, inspiring many twists and variations. Our green goddess dressing is light, zingy and creamy: whizz it up in just 10 minutes and enjoy with a green goddess salad, as a dip or drizzle on roasted veg.
