Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For a smoother texture, blend the sauce in a food processor before serving.
• Avoid using non-fat sour cream as it can make the sauce too thin.
• Serve the sauce chilled to enhance its flavors and pair it beautifully with warm prime rib.
Food Safety:
• Refrigerate any unused sauce promptly to maintain freshness.
• Use within 5 days for best quality and safety.
