Caramelized Onion Dip
🖨 Print & View 👁
This velvety Caramelized Onion Dip transforms simple ingredients into a flavor sensation that puts store-bought versions to shame. Sweet onions slowly cooked until golden and jammy create a rich, complex base that pairs perfectly with the tangy creaminess of sour cream and buttermilk. Perfect with potato chips, fresh vegetables, or as a spread on sandwiches!
Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 sweet onions, halved and thinly sliced (about 5 cups)
1 cup sour cream
½ cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Directions
Heat the oil in a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until brown, sticky and caramelized (about 20 minutes). If the pan starts to burn, reduce the heat to medium-low and add 1 tablespoon of water, stirring well.
Transfer the onions to a small bowl and chill until cold (about 1 hour).
Reserve 1 tablespoon of the onions.
In a food processor, pulse the remaining onions, sour cream, buttermilk and salt until just combined.
Transfer to a serving dish and top with the reserved onions. Chill for at least an hour before serving.
Servings
Makes about 2 cups of dip, serving 6-8 as an appetizer

🙄 Help: Seriously? You don't need any help.
🌄 Why No Pictures: Well, there ARE some pictures, here and there. But to be honest, if you need pictures showing you how to stir something, you shouldn't be cooking! And really, I find them annoying when all I want to do is look at the recipe! Also, we haven't made most of these recipes. We occasionally take pictures of the finished product when we remember!
💯 Why There Are Recipe Numbers Missing: Well, it's like this. The recipe numbers are automatically generated by the database, always using a new number for a new recipe. Over the last 20 years many recipes, mostly test recipes, have been added and then deleted, leaving only their memory and their number behind. And there was also a lot of weird stuff going on in the beginning, which messed up the order. In terms of date added, the first one is #6, then #4, #9, #10, #4, #718!!!, #2, and finally #1. Just the way databases and poor programmers work!
