SALSA DI PARMIGIANO (PARMESAN DIP)
This recipe is courtesy of Michael Chiarello on the Food Network. This is simple to make and yummy to eat. It's great on crostini and bruschetta and I'm sure on or in many other foods! Note: this dip is a little oily and when it sits, has oil that settles on the top--it's supposed to do that.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dip will taste. Look for Parmesan cheese that is flavorful and has a nutty taste. You can also use a combination of Parmesan and other hard cheeses, such as Asiago or Romano.
- Don't overcook the garlic. Garlic can quickly burn and become bitter. Cook it over low heat until it is fragrant and slightly browned.
- Use a food processor to create a smooth dip. A food processor will help you to create a smooth and creamy dip. If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender.
- Serve the dip warm. Parmesan dip is best served warm and melted. You can warm it in the microwave or in a saucepan over low heat.
- Garnish the dip with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, or chives, can add a pop of color and flavor to the dip.
Conclusion:
Parmesan 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. With its creamy texture and nutty flavor, Parmesan dip is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
