BAKED PITA CHIPS WITH CHARRED THREE ONION DIP
To me, there's nothing that says party like potato chips and dip. Take the typical chips and dip to a new level with smoky baked pita chips and my charred three onion dip. Better make a double batch!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine the olive oil, 1/2 tablespoon salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk together. Brush the seasoned oil on the first pita, stack another pita on top and repeat until you have 3 pitas. Repeat, making a second stack.
- Use a knife to cut the stack into 8 wedges. Repeat with the second stack. Arrange the chips in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Flip and bake until golden and toasted, another 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle the chips with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon salt as soon as you remove them from the oven. Serve with the Charred Three Onion Dip.
- Slice the onion into 4 wedges. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the scallions and onions with olive oil. Grill until they are softened and the outside is charred, about 5 minutes for the scallions and 10 minutes for the onions. Chop the scallions and slice the onions very thin. Put in a bowl. Add the sour cream, mascarpone, Worcestershire, lemon juice, salt, pepper, chives and hot sauce and mix together. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
CHARRED SCALLION DIP
Steps:
- Heat a grill pan or grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates.
- Set 2 scallions aside. Drizzle the remaining scallions on a plate with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the oiled scallions to the grill pan and cook until slightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Set aside to cool completely, then finely chop. Thinly slice the whites and light greens of the remaining 2 scallions and set aside for garnish.
- Combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, Worcestershire, garlic salt, onion powder and 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper in a medium bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Stir in the grilled scallions. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the fresh sliced scallions. Serve right away or chill.
CHARRED SCALLION DIP WITH LEMON AND HERBS
This creamy scallion dip could be the cooler cousin of ranch dressing or sour cream and onion dip. Grilled scallions add smokiness, while fresh chives and raw scallions lend brightness to the tangy, herb-flecked dip. If you don't have a grill or grill pan, you can broil the scallions in your oven. Once assembled, the dip benefits from chilling to round out the flavors. At least an hour works, but it's better after a day. It needs nothing more than potato chips alongside, but it's also great with crudités, crackers, grilled vegetables, fried chicken or slathered on sandwiches.

Steps:
- Heat a grill or a grill pan over high.
- As pan heats up, prepare the scallion-herb mixture: Halve 2 scallions lengthwise, then slice very thinly crosswise. Transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in chives and dill, if using. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
- On a baking sheet, toss remaining 10 scallions with the canola oil. Season generously with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Working in batches if necessary, grill the scallions over high heat, turning occasionally, until deeply grill-marked and slightly softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to cool.
- While the scallions cool, add the sour cream, cream cheese, lemon zest and juice, onion and garlic powders, and sugar to the medium bowl with the scallion-herb mixture.
- Thinly slice the grilled scallions, then add to the sour cream mixture and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour or ideally 1 day. (The flavor will deepen as it sits.) To serve, drizzle with olive oil. Serve with potato chips for dipping.
SOUR CREAM AND ROASTED RED ONION DIP
Here's how to make onion dip without standing near the stove for an eternity, waiting for onions to caramelize: Roast rings of onion in the oven with the teeniest bit of sugar for 40 minutes for effortlessly faux-caramelized onions. Red onions are naturally a bit sweeter and mellower than white ones, especially when they get brown and slouchy, but lemon juice, chives and raw garlic will perk them right up. The creaminess - what we're here for - comes from three sources: sour cream, mayonnaise and Greek yogurt, a nice counter to the crisp potato chips you'll, of course, serve it with.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the onion slices in a single layer on the prepared sheet, leaving room between each. (Use 2 baking sheets if the onions won't all fit comfortably on 1.) Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and the sugar and gently flip to coat, keeping the rings as intact as possible. Cook for 30 to 40 minutes, turning once, until soft and browning (It's O.K. if some parts get crisp and charred).
- Let the onions cool slightly, then transfer to a cutting board and roughly chop. (You want to have small pieces of onion without making a paste.)
- Transfer the onions to a medium bowl and add the sour cream, yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt, lemon juice and black pepper. Fold to combine.
- Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with minced chives. Serve with potato chips.

CARAMELIZED FRENCH ONION DIP
My family loves French onion dip but I find most recipes made from fresh onions tend to be very sweet. By adding the beef bouillon and Worcestershire sauce, it deepens the flavors and slows the caramelization of the onions. The result is a savory dip that goes great with veggies, crackers, and chips. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add 1/2 cup water, Worcestershire, beef base, onion powder, and thyme. Increase heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until beef base is dissolved.
- Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, 30 to 45 minutes. Liquid will slowly evaporate and onions will caramelize. If onions start to stick to the pan, throw in a splash of water and scrape up the delicious bits. Taste before adding sugar, salt, and pepper. Once seasoned to your liking, remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Mix cooled onions with sour cream until well combined. Chill for 1 hour before serving.
