Summer Dips for Easy
Entertaining
It's official, October was the coldest October in 64 years.
Summer has been slow in arriving, but we at Burger Wisconsin are
optimists, and this month we will give you some summer dip
recipes.
Dips that are easy to make and will also win friends and
influence people at your summer entertaining soirees.
Adie has created for you 3 dips using the fresh ingredients we
use in our burgers.
She uses fresh Avocados
for an 'Asian Guacamole', fresh Tomatoes & Chickpeas to make a
'Chickpea Tomato & Chili' dip, plus a 'Singapore Satay'
dip.
What does one dip with?
Water biscuits, wafers or bread sticks are perfect. For a
healthy taste you can slice raw vegetables; celery, carrot, red
capsicum, etc into sticks, use broccoli & cauliflower florets,
or asparagus spears.
These dipping vegetables are called crudités from the French word crudité,
meaning uncooked or raw.
The appealing aspect of dips is that they add a special taste to
many dishes, particularly appetizers. Use these following dips
for:
· Chilled cooked shrimp and other
seafood
· As dips for vegetables - crudités
· For spooning over barbecued meat and
seafood
· Add to sandwiches, burgers and
wraps
They are quick and easy to make so you can spend your time
enjoying your summer entertaining.
