Ingredients
In this adaptation of the Canadian Honey Dill dish, we have incorporated New Zealand flavors and ingredients to create a unique culinary experience. The original Canadian recipe typically uses mayonnaise and mustard as the base for the glaze, while our New Zealand version replaces these ingredients with honey and lemon juice for a sweeter and tangier flavor profile. Additionally, we have added fresh dill as a garnish to enhance the herbal notes of the dish. We alse have the original recipe for Honey Dill, so you can check it out.
