Onion Dip Recipe - Great for Parties!

Dips and chips, the mindless “go to” dish when asked to contribute to the party. One of my favorites is French Onion Dip but there are few store brands that will do. The basis of most French Onion Dip is dry soup mix with sour cream - far from appetizing if you ask me. If we are being honest, it’s nothing short of disgusting. This is a classic example of a thing destroyed by our desire for convenience. This French Onion Dip Recipe will help this party food reclaim it’s status as a deliciously addictive crowd pleaser.

French Onion Dip Recipe

1 recipe of caramelized onions
1 1/2 cups sour cream
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Making Home Made French Onion Dip

1) Place all ingredients in a mixing bowl except for the caramelized onions and mix well.

2) Add the cooled caramelized onions mix.

3) Refrigerate for at least two hours to let the flavors incorporate. If you have the patience to let it chill overnight, that’s even better. When doing so, make sure that the plastic wrap is touching the French Onion Dip so there is little opportunity for oxidation. Stir well, serve with your choice of chips or fresh crudités.

    If you must resort to a store bought brand of french onion dip I recommend Dean’s. It’s the only one I can stand and its really quite good (although nothing beats the real thing). My mom loves her french onion dip with Fritos Scoops. I’ll admit, she’s on to something - she got me hooked its become my ‘go to’ junk food combo!

    Crudites are cut raw vegetables (such as carrot sticks, pepper strips, etc) usually served with a dip.
