Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup pasteurized sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, finely minced
  • 1 tsp fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions:

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pasteurized sour cream and mayonnaise. Whisk vigorously for about 30 seconds until the mixture is completely homogeneous and glossy.
  2. Add the finely minced chipotle peppers, lime juice, and garlic powder. Whisk slowly at first to avoid splattering, then increase speed until the mixture is a uniform, pale orange hue.
  3. Stir in the salt. Taste the dip and adjust by adding an additional tablespoon of sour cream if the heat is too intense, or a few extra drops of lime juice for more brightness.
