Bagna Cauda (Warm Anchovy and Garlic Sauce)
Report
This delectable Anchovy & garlic sauce from Piemonte, Italy is a flavour bomb of salty anchovies with garlic and oil. Bagna Cauda is packed full of flavour and the perfect sauce to dip vegetables and meat into. It's a crazy delicious little treasure to have up your sleeve.

Suggested Accompaniments (my favourites)

Instructions
- Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves and place in a small pan with the extra virgin olive oil.
- Turn on the heat to medium and let the garlic come up to a gentle simmer.
- Add ½ cup of water and stir well. Let this sizzle for around 5 minutes until the water has evaporated and the garlic is gently frying again.
- Add the anchovy fillets and their oil into the pan.
- Let this begin to sizzle gently too. Fry for about 5 minutes, breaking up the anchovies with a wooden spoon.
- Remove from the heat and pour into a small jug and pulse blitz 2-3 times with an immersion blender to blend the sauce a little.
- Serve warm in a bowl with your chosen vegetables and/or bread to dip and dress with the sauce.
- If you have a bagna cauda heater then pour some of the sauce into that and keep warm with a tea-light candle. Top up with sauce as needed.
