MEDITERRANEAN DIP



Mediterranean Dip image

This is a Trader Joe recipe. It is such a delicious dip! I took it to a party and everyone wanted a copy of the recipe. The recipe suggests layering the ingredients into a pie plate or something sized similar. I made the mistake of thinking that was too big for the dip and used a smaller serving dish. By the time I was finished layering the ingredients, it was too full! I served this dip with pita crackers from Trader Joes, but you could use your own favorite dippers. This recipe looks unusual but it is knock out.

Tips:

  • Use fresh artichokes: Fresh artichokes have a more vibrant flavor and texture compared to canned or frozen ones.
  • Trim the artichokes properly: Remove the tough outer leaves and the sharp tips of the leaves to make the artichokes easier to eat.
  • Cook the artichokes until tender: Boil or steam the artichokes until they are tender but still hold their shape.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices: This will give the dip a more complex flavor profile. Some good options include garlic, lemon zest, oregano, thyme, and paprika.
  • Don't over-process the dip: A slightly chunky texture is ideal. If you over-process the dip, it will become too smooth and lose some of its flavor.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite accompaniments: Some good options include pita bread, crackers, or vegetables.
