Homemade Dill Dip

Dill is one of my favorite herbs. I love growing it in my herb garden. I dry it in a dehydrator and store it in a jar to use when needed. I've also frozen it. This is my favorite dill recipe.

This dill dip is very good served with chips and even better served with assorted veggies-especially cucumbers! I've even spread this dip on sandwiches instead of using plain mayonnaise. And I've added milk to thin it out and used it as salad dressing. It's seriously addicting!

The dip has a more appealing flavor and texture if you allow the dip to sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before serving.

Other Helpful Hints…

When I bring home bacon from the store, I cook the entire package by laying the strips on a foil lined sheet pan (for easy clean-up). I put it in a preheated 400 degree oven for 15-20 minutes. Cooking to desired doneness or slightly less for additional cooking when needed later. Remove cooked strips of bacon from the sheet pan and place on several layers of paper towels to drain. Allow the grease remaining in the foil to solidify and throw the foil and grease away. Or if you like to cook with bacon grease, pour the grease into a mason jar and refrigerate. Roll up the paper towels with the cooked strips of bacon in them for additional grease removal. Allow to cool and place the entire roll of bacon in layers of paper towels into a zip top freezer bag. Place in the freezer until ready to use. The grease saturated layers of paper towels protect the strips of bacon and also make it easier to remove the bacon strips as needed when unrolling the paper towels. Reheat strips of bacon in a pan, oven or microwave.

When cutting chives into small pieces, I like to grab a bunch of chives and use a pair of scissors to cut the chives versus using a knife. It’s just easier for me and may be for you as well.

Dip and Chip Deliciousness

I’m going to let you in on a guilty little pleasure of mine. I am totally addicted to Kroger’s Prime Rib and Horseradish Potato Chips. I love to dunk them in the baked potato dip. It tastes like a piece of prime rib and a loaded baked potato in one crunchy little bite. Run, Don’t Walk to your nearest Kroger Grocery Store and get yourself some of these potato chips. And if you like things extra spicy, add some horseradish into the baked potato dip as well!
