RECIPE: Bagna Càuda Dip
This delectable warm dip is inspired by a dish called “Bagna càuda” which originated in Provence, France, and has since become popular in Italy. While the original dish gets its flavors from garlic and anchovies, this version has a Japanese twist, using soy milk and miso to add creaminess and a deep umami taste. Use as a dip for cooked Japanese-style wieners/sausages, broccoli, kabocha (Japanese pumpkin), sweet potatoes, or slices of crusty bread.
Ingredients:
- 35ml plain soy milk
- 2 Tbsp spicy chili shiitake miso* (or any other miso*)
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- Finely minced garlic (small amount, to taste)
Instructions:
- In a small saucepan, combine soy milk, spicy chili shiitake miso, olive oil, and garlic over low heat and whisk to combine. Turn off the heat, pour into a bowl. Enjoy as a dip while still warm!
