Creamy Charred Scallion Dip

This creamy roasted scallion sauce is a delicious, versatile staple that’s easy to make. It pairs well with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, crackers, or fresh crudités. The base is yogurt, which you can easily strain at home using a dish towel or cheesecloth to achieve a thicker consistency, or you can simply use Greek yogurt. Dill is used in this recipe, but feel free to swap in your favorite herb—basil is another favorite of mine.
