Loaded dips are my signature. They’re dishes that I return to time and time again, and they’re the dishes friends and family expect me to bring to gatherings, along with a loaf of freshly-baked sourdough to dip, dunk and schmear with. And this concept doesn’t stop here. The dreamy, creamy loaded guac on the following page is further testament to how special the combination of a creamy base with flavoursome toppings can be.
It’s not often that I call for specific kitchen equipment, but for this recipe a high-powered blender is really important. If you don’t have a good blender, you won’t get a smooth and creamy dip.
