Miami tries to claim the Cuban sandwich as its own, but Tampa had it long before Miami. The 2 sandwiches are similar, but Tampa's is the authentic Cuban which has salami. You'll find all the flavors of this popular sandwich in this dip.

CUBAN GARLIC SAUCE

Cuban Garlic Sauce image

A great marinade, dip for chips or veggies, & a sauce for meats. I would eat this stuff on just about anything. I usually dump everything into the blender and puree it until it is smooth.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make all the difference in your dip. Use ripe avocados, fresh lime juice, and high-quality sour cream.
Don't over-blend the dip: You want the dip to be smooth and creamy, but not too thin. Over-blending will make it watery.
Season the dip to taste: Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
Chill the dip before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and make the dip more refreshing.
Serve the dip with a variety of dippers: Tortilla chips, vegetable crudités, and crackers are all great options.

Conclusion:

Miami Cuban dip is a delicious and versatile appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a crowd-pleasing snack, give Miami Cuban dip a try.
