Gouda Onion Dip

Posted on

Here’s a great dip recipe just in time for summer entertaining, backyard BBQs, and our own local, fresh vegetables. Make up a batch and enjoy a leisurely break on your back deck.

 

 

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil or vegetable oil
  •  1 cup very finely diced yellow onion (about 1 medium onion)
  •  1 medium garlic clove, minced
  •  1 cup light or regular sour cream
  •  2/3 cup light or regular mayonnaise
  •  2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
  •  1 cup grated gouda cheese
  •  salt and white pepper to taste
  •  splash of Tobasco
  •  splash of Worcestershire sauce

Method

Place the oil in a skillet set over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until very tender and light golden in colour, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook 1 minute more. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.

Place the sour cream and mayonnaise in a bowl and whisk to combine. Mix in the cooked onions and remaining ingredients. Transfer to a serving bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Can be made up to a day in advance of serving. If desired, you could garnish the top of the dip with a little grated gouda.

Recipe Options: Make cheddar onion dip, or asiago onion dip, by replacing the Gouda with either grated old cheddar cheese, or grated asiago cheese. Instead of parsley, give this dip and even more oniony flavour by mixing in 2 Tbsp. of very thinly sliced green onion.

Serving Suggestions

Serve this dip with raw vegetables for dunking in it, such as radishes, snap peas, cauliflower and broccoli florets, and sticks of English cucumber, bell pepper and carrot. The dip will also taste divine spread on crackers or sliced baguette. You could also serve with potato chips.
