Re: Classic Italian Bread Dip
Thank you Thom - that is very kind of you.
May I share this recipe with you? I have gotten a lot of compliments on it - and it is posted in Favorites or What's for dinner - but here goes:
KITCHEN WITCH'S BREAD DIPPING SAUCE
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
Place all ingredients in grinder and grind evenly if you like - if not, mix well.
Store airtight.
When you want to use it - mix 1 tablespoon of this mixutre with olive oil (extra-virgin preferred). You can adjust the flavor the way you want.
Dip warm bread into mixture and enjoy!
If making subs/hoagies/panini sandwiches - I combine this mixture in a plastic bottle similar to a plastic ketchup or mustard bottle and shake and squeeze on the bread as a dressing. It can also be used with mayo/salad dressing on sandwiches for a little extra "zing" in the flavor.
I went to a beauty supply house and bought several different sizes of hair dye applicator bottles that I use in my pantry. You can cut the tips as large as you would like for many uses. Those bottles are used for salad dressings, chocolates, syrups, icing cookies with designs, BBQ sauces, etc. just use your imagination!
I've also posted that I've used it for sandwiches, etc. in the Superbowl thread in the Recipe Exchange.
If you try it - please let me know how you like it!
