Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
2 Red Bell Peppers
1 Plum Tomato
1/2 cup Mayonnaise
1/2 Garlic Clove
2 Kosher Salt
1 Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 cup Almonds (optional)
2 tbsp Vinegar (red wine works)

Instructions:

  1. Roasting the Peppers:

    • Preheat your broiler. Place whole red bell peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet.
    • Broil, turning as needed, until the peppers are blackened on all sides.
    • Transfer the peppers to a brown paper bag and let them cool.
    • Once cool enough to handle, remove the skins from the peppers.
  2. Making the Dip:

    • In a blender, combine the roasted red bell peppers (skins removed), plum tomato, mayonnaise, garlic, kosher salt, almonds (if using), and vinegar.
    • Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Adding the Olive Oil:

    • With the blender running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil.
    • Continue blending until the dip reaches a creamy consistency.
  4. Chill and Serve:

    • Transfer the dip to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This allows the flavors to meld together.
    • The dip can be refrigerated for up to 4 days, so it’s great for making ahead.
    • Before serving, allow the dip to come to room temperature for the best flavor.
  5. Enjoy!:

    • Serve this delicious Roasted Red Pepper Dip with an array of options:
      • Fresh vegetables like carrots, celery, cucumber, and bell pepper strips.
      • Crispy crostini or pita crisps, adding a delightful crunch to each bite.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Toasting Almonds:

    • If you’re using almonds, toast them for added flavor.
    • Heat a skillet over medium heat, add the almonds, and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly browned (about 2 minutes). Be careful not to overcook!
  • Make it Your Own:

    • This recipe is quite versatile. Feel free to adjust the seasonings to your taste.
    • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
    • If you prefer a smoother texture, blend the dip for a bit longer.
  • Storage:

    • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
    • The flavors will continue to develop, making the dip even more delicious over time.
    • Remember to stir well before serving again.
  • Presentation:

    • Garnish the dip with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as chopped parsley or basil.
    • A few cracked black pepper or paprika on top can add a pop of color and flavor.
