Lemon Caper Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Crush capers in a small bowl with the back of a spoon.
• Melt 1/2 teaspoon butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until the butter foams and is golden; saute capers until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add lemon juice, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring frequently, until liquid is reduced by one-third, 1 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• Stir cold butter and savory into lemon mixture, stirring constantly until butter is completely melted and sauce is shiny and thick, about 1 minute.

Steps:

• In a bowl stir tuna with a fork until finely flaked. In another bowl whisk tofu until smooth. Stir tofu and remaining ingredients into tuna until combined and season with salt and pepper. Serve dip with crackers or crudités.

Steps:

• Drain and rinse beans well. In a food processor, combine all ingredients except parsley. Process on high until texture is very smooth and creamy. Pulse in parsley. Adjust ingredient amounts to suit your taste; this is a very forgiving recipe and amounts do not need to be exact. Place in covered bowl and chill for at least 2 hours. Serve with warm pita bread, pita chips and assorted vegetables cut to dipping size (carrots, bell peppers, onions, etc.).

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender, then season with salt and pepper.
• Purée until fine, then scrape into a bowl.
• Sprinkle with extra pine nuts and the reserved parsley leaves to serve.

Steps:

• In a small, non-reactive serving bowl combine all the ingredients.
• Cover and chill until ready to serve.

• Garnish with some fresh dill weed and a few strands of lemon peel.

Steps:

• On a cutting board, smash and coarsely mince the garlic. Add 10 grinds of fresh pepper and the capers to the garlic. Chop and press down on the mixture with the side of your knife until a coarse paste forms.
• Transfer the paste to a bowl, then stir in the lemon juice, followed by the Parmesan. Slowly add in the olive oil, stirring until emulsified. Taste on a lettuce leaf (or whatever you're dressing) and adjust as needed with acid (lemon), fat (olive oil), and salt (capers and cheese).
