A fun, giftable cookbook that showcases the versatility of dips with options for every occasion and mood, including snacking, entertaining, 'picky bits' picnics and much more
Need an easy contribution for a potluck/picnic? Dip it. Stunning small plates to feed friends when entertaining? Dip it. Or even a quick, delicious snack to tide you over until dinner? Dip it. Dip it good. There is no mood that can't be improved by dips, and this book shows the versatility of this amazing dish. Often using affordable ingredients and store-cupboard staples, dips are a great way to use up things you already have at home, such as beets languishing at the bottom of the fridge or the sumac hidden at the back of your spice rack that you bought once for a tagine and never used again. They're also the simplest way to jazz up food and provide an extra flavor boost to lackluster meals.The 80 recipes are divided into six chapters that include Dips in a Dash (made in 15 mins), Dips for Grazing (sides and snacks), Dips for Dinner, Dips for Feasting, Dips to Impress (showstoppers that require a bit more effort) and Dips for Dessert. With creative takes on the dish and lighter options for side snacking to more substantial recipes for full feasting - and everything in between - whatever the occasion, go on... Dip In.
