Main Ingredients
  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil the star of the show!
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice for that zing

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped rosemary. Give it a nice stir.
  2. Add salt and black pepper. Taste it! If you’re feeling adventurous, sprinkle in those red pepper flakes for a spicy wake-up call.
  3. Let your dip sit for about 30 minutes to allow all those lush flavors to mingle.
  4. Transfer the dip into your fanciest bowl and serve with sliced veggies or toasted bread.

Notes

Don’t worry if your dip doesn’t look perfectly blended—a rustic vibe adds charm. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2-3 days. This dip tastes even better after sitting for a while; make it a few hours ahead for great flavor.
