Tips:

  • Choose the right tomatoes: Use sun-dried tomatoes that are packed in oil, not water. This will give your dip a richer flavor.
  • Soak the tomatoes: Before using, soak the sun-dried tomatoes in hot water for 15 minutes. This will soften them and make them easier to blend.
  • Use a food processor: A food processor is the best way to get a smooth and creamy dip. If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender, but the dip may not be as smooth.
  • Season to taste: Taste the dip and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, garlic, or herbs.
  • Chill before serving: For the best flavor, chill the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld.
