Serving Tip:

 
This sauce is a true all-rounder! Drizzle it generously over grilled chicken or fish, use it as a refreshing dip for pita bread, or toss it with roasted vegetables to add a creamy, cool finish.
 

Wine Advice:

 
Finding a wine for a tangy yogurt sauce is like finding the perfect dance partner—it needs to be light on its feet and not afraid of a little zest. A crisp, light-bodied white like a Pinot Grigio or a dry Rosé will do the trick perfectly. Their refreshing acidity and subtle fruit notes will complement the tangy yogurt and fresh dill, making for a beautifully balanced experience. It’s a pairing so good, it might just make your food sing.
