Roasted Garlic Dip Vegan Recipe 455

ROASTED GARLIC DIP

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Cut off the top of the head of garlic to expose the cloves, trimming about 1/4 inch off of the top of each clove. You may need to trim individual cloves along the sides of the head. Brush the cut cloves with a small amount of olive oil, then nestle the head into a piece of aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cloves are tender and nicely browned, about 1 hour. Remove, and allow to cool to room temperature.
• Once cool, squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins and into a mixing bowl. Mash well with a wire whisk, then add the sour cream, mayonnaise, green onions, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Whisk until evenly blended, then refrigerate 2 to 4 hours to allow the flavors to blend.

CREAMY ONION GARLIC DIP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Keep the garlic head all in once piece and slice about ¼ inch straight off the top of the whole garlic head exposing the inside of the cloves inside.
• Take a square of tin foil and put the garlic head cut side down in the middle of the foil and wrap it tightly.
• Bake in the oven for around 40 minutes. After this time check it. It should be really soft if you give it a squeeze. Give it another 5 minutes or so if it's not. Once completely soft remove from the oven and allow to cool in the foil.
• While the garlic is roasting, heat a sauté pan over a medium low heat with the olive oil (or a few tablespoons of water). Once hot add the sliced onion. Cook slowly for around 30 minutes, stirring frequently. If you use water you will need to add a few drops more here and there to stop the onions sticking.
• Once the onion is really soft and starting to go golden, add the sugar (optional but recommended for a more caramelized result) and stir well then continue to cook for another 5 minutes or so until a deep golden brown then remove from the heat and set aside.
• Add the tofu, nutritional yeast, white miso, vinegar and salt to a blender.
• Take the roasted garlic head and gently squeeze the garlic out of the papery skins and into the blender along with half of the onion and a few drops of the milk.
• Blend until completely smooth. Check the consistency and add a little more milk if you prefer a slightly thinner dip. I used a full ¼ cup but you might prefer less.
• Add the thyme and the rest of the onion and stir to distribute. If you prefer it completely smooth you can blend all the onion up into it. I like having some of the golden strands through mine for texture.
• Spoon into a serving dish.
• Optional : Garnish with more caramelized onion or some fresh thyme leaves.

ROASTED GARLIC DIP

Steps:

• Cut the top third off each head of garlic so the cloves are exposed and wrap in foil. Roast the garlic until the cloves are very soft and golden, about 45 minutes. Cool slightly and then pop the cloves from the skins and finely chop.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pancetta to paper towels to drain.
• Mix together the sour cream and cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Add the pancetta, chopped garlic, dill, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and stir to combine. Serve with crackers.

ROASTED GARLIC DIP WITH VEGETABLE PLATTER

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/gas 5/fan 170C. Cut a slice off the top of each head of garlic and place on foil. Spoon over 4 tbsp of the oil, tuck in the thyme and wrap. Season with salt and pepper and bake for up to 1 hour - until the garlic is very soft. Cool.
• Beat the cheese in a bowl until smooth. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of its skin into the cheese and mash with a fork until smoothish. Beat in sufficient oil and/or milk to get a good dipping consistency. Beat in the herbs and season to taste - add a squeeze of lemon too, if necessary.
• Heat 1 tsp oil in a small pan and fry the sliced garlic gently until golden brown (not too brown or it will taste bitter). Drain and scatter the garlic over the dip. Serve the dip in the centre of a large platter of vegetables.

CREAMY VEGAN GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• ROAST THE GARLIC: Heat your oven to 400F and add your garlic to a small oven-safe dish or baking sheet. Drizzle it with the oil lightly (or skip for oil-free). Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and cook for about 10-12 minutes, flipping once. You want it to be slightly browned but not burnt, so keep an eye on it. Usually, when you smell it, it's almost there!
• MAKE THE SAUCE: Next, throw all your ingredients in a blender and blend on high until everything is combined. If you're using the olive oil, blend it a little longer to emulsify everything. Taste and adjust seasonings as you see fit.
• TO USE: Pour this sauce over just-cooked pasta, use it on homemade pizzas, as a garlic bread spread, or to dip all the things!
• TO STORE: Store this sauce in an air-tight container in the fridge for 5-7 days. We do not recommend freezing the sauce.
