Categories     Cheese

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 cup vidalia onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup sharp white cheddar cheese, finely grated
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon fresh chives, copped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add onion and saute until it just starts to brown, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
  • Mix mayonnaise, sour cream, cheddar, Tabasco, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add onion and mix until evenly distributed. Spread dip into a shallow 5x7 baking dish and bake until bubbling and slightly browned, about 20 minutes. Stir in chives and serve.

Tips:

  • Use Sweet Onions: Sweet onions, such as Vidalia or Walla Walla, are the best choice for onion dip because they have a milder flavor and caramelize beautifully.
  • Cook the Onions Slowly: Slowly caramelizing the onions over low heat brings out their natural sweetness and gives the dip a rich, complex flavor.
  • Use Good Quality Beef Broth: Beef broth is a key ingredient in onion dip, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich, beefy flavor.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and parsley, add a pop of flavor to onion dip. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Let the Dip Chill: Chilling the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving allows the flavors to meld and develop. This will also make the dip thicker and easier to spread.
  • Serve with a Variety of Dippers: Onion dip is traditionally served with potato chips, but it can also be served with a variety of other dippers, such as vegetables, crackers, or bread.

Conclusion:

Warm onion dip is a classic party food that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy, cheesy flavor and caramelized onions, it's sure to be a hit at your next gathering. So next time you're looking for a simple but delicious appetizer, give this warm onion dip recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
