THE BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP



The Best Spinach Artichoke Dip image

This is our best version of the classic party dip. It's savory and creamy with a slight tang from sour cream and Parmesan -- so hard to resist. We like to use frozen whole leaf spinach and chop it ourselves for more control over the finished texture of the dish.

Time 40m

Yield 6 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, grated
One 10-ounce box frozen leaf spinach, thawed, drained, squeezed dry and coarsely chopped (see Cook's Note)
One 14-ounce can artichoke hearts, drained well and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup shredded whole-milk mozzarella
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Crackers, chips or toasted bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.

MICHAEL'S SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP



Michael's Spinach Artichoke Dip image

This is our twist on the CPK recipe. It is a lot of work but well worth it. The original recipe called for 3/4 c Parmesan cheese, 12 ounces of the spinach, and 3/4 t tobasco. I increased the spinach and P.Cheese to make it thicker and more gooey. The tobasco because I couldn't taste it at 3/4...might need even more. I preferred it better the next day...cold, but that's my preference. The prep time was a bit long but then I was doing everything by hand. I forgot to measure how much it made but I think it was around five cups. Serve with blue and white corn tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh spinach and artichoke hearts will give your dip the best flavor. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach, but be sure to thaw it and squeeze out all the excess water before using.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked spinach will be mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the most important ingredients in spinach artichoke dip, so be sure to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar cheese or a creamy Parmesan cheese are both good choices.
  • Don't skimp on the artichoke hearts: Artichoke hearts are the other star ingredient in spinach artichoke dip, so don't be afraid to use a lot of them. You can use canned or jarred artichoke hearts, or you can roast your own artichokes.
  • Season the dip to taste: Spinach artichoke dip is a versatile dish that can be seasoned to your liking. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or other spices to taste.

Conclusion:

Spinach artichoke dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It can be served with crackers, chips, or vegetables. You can also use it as a filling for sandwiches or wraps. No matter how you serve it, spinach artichoke dip is sure to be a hit!
