Sweet Vidalia Onion Dip
Description
This dip begins by preparing the sweet onion into fine slices and a small minced portion, which are thoroughly mixed with mayonnaise, sour cream, and a mix of Grana Padano, mozzarella, and white cheddar cheeses. The seasoning with salt, plenty of freshly cracked black pepper, dashes of hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce provides layered flavor with subtle heat and umami. Baking at 375°F for 25 minutes melts the cheese and creates a lightly browned, bubbly surface.
Serving the dip with grilled, toasted slices of baguette adds crispness that complements the creamy texture. The dip’s balance of sweet onion and multiple cheeses make it suitable as an appetizer or snack to share. It highlights the mild sweetness of Vidalia onions enhanced by baking.
Ingredients
- 1 vidalia onion 10-12 ounces, any sweet onion variety acceptable
- 1 mayonnaise scant cup
- 1 sour cream scant cup
- 1/2 cup Grana Padano cheese shredded; substitute Parmesan or Romano
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1 cup White Cheddar Cheese shredded
- 3/4 tsp salt
- black pepper lots, fresh cracked, to taste
- 4 hot sauce dashes
- 2 Worcestershire sauce dashes
Instructions
- Set the oven to 375F
- Peel and slice the onion in half. Then slice it in half again, and cut 3 of the sections into very fine slices. Take the last piece and mince it. Put the onion in a bowl with the rest of the ingredients and mix well until everything is thoroughly combined. Taste and adjust the seasonings to your liking.
- Spoon the mixture into an ovenproof casserole and bake for 25 minutes until browned and bubbly.
- While the dip is baking, slice a baguette and place the slices on a hot grill pan to toast them on both sides. Serve with the hot dip.
