PAULA DEEN'S CARAMELIZED VIDALIA ONION AND BLUE CHEESE HOT DIP

This is a quick and easy dip to make that everyone seems to love. I used panko bread crumbs because that is what I had in my pantry. I also found that you needed to cut the onion pieces into smaller strips (I took the onion and cut it in half and then half again). I also used Clemson Blue Cheese.

  • Caramelize the onions slowly and patiently: Caramelizing the onions properly is essential for developing their rich, sweet flavor. Cook them over low heat, stirring frequently, until they are deep golden brown.
  • Use a good quality mayonnaise: The mayonnaise adds richness and creaminess to the dip. Use a mayonnaise that you enjoy the taste of, and make sure it is fresh.
  • Season the dip to taste: The amount of salt, pepper, and garlic powder you add to the dip will depend on your personal preferences. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Chill the dip before serving: Chilling the dip allows the flavors to meld and develop. It also makes the dip easier to scoop and serve.
