“My mom used to make this sun-dried tomato dip to spread on grilled cheddar sandwiches,” says Michael White. He serves it with crudités. Slideshow: Delicious Party Dips
How to Make It
Step 1
In a small bowl, soak the tomatoes in hot water until softened, about 20 minutes; drain.
Step 2
In a food processor, combined the softened tomatoes, olives, capers, garlic, bread, red pepper, balsamic and red wine vinegars and the oregano and puree to a chunky paste. With the machine on, add the oil and process to a fine paste. Add 1/4 cup of warm water and process until slightly creamy. Scrape into a bowl and serve with the crudités.
Make Ahead
The dip can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
