No Utensils Required

Dip. It’s a command! You must dip. The perennial picnicking-and-grilling staple just requires a delivery device (cracker, bread, chip, vegetable, fruit,

finger). Leave the jarred salsa and rehydrated onion dip to the ants. These recipes are easy to make and sure-thing crowd-pleasers, with flavors that range from spicy to refreshing to sweet. So lose the fork. Begin dipping.

Roasted Red Pepper–Feta Dip
Sweet and tangy and very cracker-friendly.

Texas Caviar
Absolutely no fish eggs involved—just summery corn, bell peppers, beans, pickled jalapeños, and tomatoes.

Caramelized Onion Dip
So much better than the powdered stuff.

Cobb Salad Dip
Classic Cobb salad components work equally well as a dip.

Baba Ghanoush
Japanese eggplant gives this Middle Eastern dip more complexity.

Tiramisu Dip
In a perfect world, even dessert is dippable. All the flavors of tiramisu without the laborious assembly.

Savory or sweet, classic or inventive, dips are for everyone
