Milk kefir cheese and lacto-fermented lemons are essential staples in my fridge. Super healthy and delicious, they are also versatile ingredients that add extra dimensions of flavour to simple dishes. One of my favourite recipes using both of these ingredients is Kefir Lemon Dill Sauce.

This sauce is so easy to make, and pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes such as: fish, roasted vegetables and potatoes, fries, grilled meat & pierogies. The sauce can also be thinned down to make a tangy dressing to drizzle on vegetables and salads. You can also replace the dill with other herbs. I like to use fennel fronds (the wispy green tops of fennel bulbs)
