Lemony Yogurt Sauce image

This bright, creamy yogurt sauce is lightly flecked with herbs and is great for everything from drizzling over savory bowls of grains to spooning on top of fried rice, breakfast hash, or [Buckwheat Crepes](/recipes/food/views/Buckwheat-Crepes-with-Honeyed-Ricotta-and-Sauteed-Plums-51195420). Double the recipe for a larger group or to keep a little jar of the sauce in the refrigerator. It's season-less, really. Morning Notes: Depending on the kind of yogurt you use and how you prefer the consistency of this sauce, feel free to add a spoonful (or two) of cold water to thin it out.

1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
