How to make Mustard Dip for Pretzels
- Mix sour cream, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sugar, dry dressing mix, and horseradish in a mixing bowl.
- Cover the mustard dip and refrigerate for a minimum of 20-30 minutes.
- Mix the dip well before serving with homestyle pretzels.
Important Tips
Too sweet or not sweet: This recipe has granulated white sugar, giving it a sweet edge. To have less sweetness, use less sugar. One trick I also like to do is substitute the white sugar for a little bit of honey instead.
Do I need to leave it in the fridge for 30 minutes? It helps the grainy texture of the sugar melt into the dip and allows the coarse texture of the seasoned dressing mix packet to soften up.
If you do not have time to wait too long for your dip, there are other fantastic dip recipes like sour cream and chive dip, cream cheese veggie dip, or even a butter board that you can try.
Variations are endless: You can switch up this classic snack dip to fit your taste preferences, from adding different herbs and spices to swapping out the type of mustard used (try with yellow mustard instead of Dijon!).
What dipping pretzels do you recommend? We like a box of frozen superpretzels for a quick snack. No fuss, no dough to rise, no yeast—pop in the microwave and enjoy during family time.
While pretzel rods, pretzel sticks, and pretzel bites with flaky salt reign supreme for this mustard dip, fresh veggies, and even little sausage bites also make a good choice.
