dill sauce

Creamy fish topping

Dill sauce is a creamy sauce flavored with dill, typically made with sour cream, mayonnaise, or a butter base.

It's a staple of Scandinavian cuisine, traditionally served with salmon, potatoes, or meatballs: The gravlax came with a mustard dill sauce.

The sauce balances the herb's bright, slightly tangy flavor with richness.
