Caramelised onions in a creamy sour-cream, cheese and mayonnaise dip.
About French onion dip
This French onion dip follows Nagi Maehashi’s homemade version of the classic party dip. Caramelised yellow onions are mixed with cream cheese, whole-egg mayonnaise and sour cream.
The onions give deep sweetness and savoury flavour. Black pepper and cayenne add warmth, with optional onion powder providing another onion note.
The dip is thick and creamy, with soft pieces of caramelised onion throughout. It is served at room temperature, with chopped chives as an optional garnish and dippers offered separately.
