  • 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
  • 1 cup creme fraiche
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper
  • Crudites, such as celery stalks, white asparagus (peeled and blanched), hearts of romaine, cucumber spears, and endive, for serving
