How to prepare or how to prevent the dill sauce from curdling

Dill sauce is one of the most famous main courses in Czech cuisine. If you decide to cook it, it is definitely worth using fresh dill. It is not only richer in vitamins compared to the sterilized one, but also has a nicer color.

In order for the sauce to preserve the beautiful color of the dill, it is necessary to wash it just before throwing it into the pot. Do not put even the most delicate stems into the sauce, which would just crunch between your teeth, but cut them off and chop only the twigs.

The most essential part is the softening or thickening. The easiest way to get a tasty dill is to make a béchamel base. Some people are used to using cream for cooking, others sour cream and others, on the contrary, whipping cream. Neither option is bad. However, when adding sour cream, you need to whisk thoroughly.

With the cooking cream, be careful not to cook the sauce for too long, as it may curdle. Adding vinegar too soon is another cause of curdling the sauce. It really has to be given at the end, milk and citric acid are responsible for this chemical reaction. If you don’t like the sourness of vinegar, you can boil it separately before adding it to the sauce.

And even if you do have the accident of curdling the sauce, reach for the stick blender. You won’t see the dill anymore, but the shriveled bits will be a mess.
