Notes
Expert Tips
- If you’re using cottage cheese, using a blender or food processor is critical to getting a smooth and creamy texture. If using Greek yogurt, you can simply use a large bowl and a whisk, however, I still find that the blender is ideal for smoothness. An immersion blender will work as well.
- If you don’t prefer the anchovy flavor, feel free to omit this ingredient entirely.
