Categories     condiment

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup Maker's Mark (R) Bourbon or Maker's 46 (TM), plus 1 tablespoon
4 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 large sweet onions/Vidalias, peeled, halved, sliced thinly with the grain
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup fresh ricotta cheese
3/4 cup Greek yogurt
1/2 cup sour cream
Few drops lemon juice
Pinch sugar
Salt and pepper to taste
Crudite vegetables and chips for dipping

Steps:

  • In a wide heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over high heat. Add the sliced onions and the teaspoon of salt. Saute the onions, stirring often until they begin to soften, 5 to 6 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and continue to stir and cook the onions until they begin to color, about another 15 minutes. Add 1/2 cup Maker's Mark to the pan and stir in. Reduce the heat to low and cook the onions for another 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions have colored and caramelized. Remove the onions from the pan and spread on a plate or baking sheet to cool in the fridge.
  • Using a food processor or blender, combine the ricotta, yogurt and remaining 1 tablespoon Maker's Mark, and process until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Fold in the sour cream. Once the onions have cooled, rough chop them briefly. Fold into the mixture and season to taste with lemon juice, sugar, salt and pepper. Serve the dip cold with crudite and chips.

Categories     condiment

Time 30m

Yield about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large sweet onions, such as Vidalia, sliced into 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick rounds
Vegetable oil, for brushing
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup bourbon
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon packed dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium. Brush the onions with vegetable oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper. Grill, covered and turning occasionally, until tender and charred, 15 to 20 minutes; roughly chop.
  • Combine the bourbon, ketchup, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce in a large skillet. Simmer over medium-high heat until the sauce has thickened and the alcohol has burned off, about 3 minutes. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and add the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality bourbon: The flavor of the bourbon will shine through in the dip, so it's important to use a bourbon that you enjoy drinking.
  • Don't overcook the onions: You want the onions to be soft and caramelized, but not mushy. Cook them over medium heat until they are tender and browned.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: The combination of sharp cheddar, cream cheese, and Parmesan cheese gives this dip a rich and complex flavor. Feel free to experiment with other cheeses that you like.
  • Serve the dip warm: This dip is best served warm, so make it just before you're ready to serve it. You can reheat it in the microwave or in a saucepan over low heat.

Conclusion:

This bourbon onion dip is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It's creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. The bourbon adds a unique twist that makes this dip a real crowd-pleaser. Serve it with your favorite chips, crackers, or vegetables and enjoy!
