This Sour Cream and Onion Dip puts store-bought to shame. SERIOUS shame. It’s all about the slowly caramelized onions and shallots along with roasted garlic bringing the depth that prepackaged dips could never dream of. You will have to serve this dip up with a side of taser, because guests are gonna try to run off with it.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:
Sour Cream and Onion Dip

Roasted Garlic

  1. Preheat oven to 400°.
  2. Cut about 1/4” from the top of the bulb (the pointy end) to expose the cloves. Place bulb cut side-up in foil, drizzle olive oil over the cut end, then wrap tightly in foil.
  3. Roast for about 45 minutes, or until garlic is golden and soft to the touch. Remove from oven and set aside until ready to use.

 

Caramelized Onions

  1. In a pan over medium-low heat, melt butter.
  2. Add onion and shallot and cook until butter is absorbed. About 30-35 mins.
  3. Add wine and broth. Cook until absorbed, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and chill before use.
