Time 22m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Olive oil
8 cloves garlic, minced
6 anchovies, optional
Large pinch chili flakes
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon minced parsley leaves

Steps:

  • In a hot pan, pour a good amount of olive oil in. When the oil starts to warm up, add garlic and turn the flame down.
  • Add the anchovies, if using (don't worry about mincing them as they will dissolve in the mixture). The anchovies should cook in the garlic oil until the garlic becomes brown and the anchovies dissolve.
  • When the garlic gets light brown, about 5 minutes, add chili flakes until they toast up and then turn flame off. Add more olive oil and salt and pepper for flavor.
  • Right before you heat the sauce in your fondue pot, add some minced parsley to cook in the sauce.

Bagna cauda means "warm bath" in an Italian dialect. Don't let the anchovies steer you away. The strong flavors of garlic and anchovy are suspended in perfect balance in warm butter and olive oil. It is a delightful dipping sauce for raw vegetables, and it makes a tasty sauce for grilled vegetables and grilled or baked fish.

This sauce is a Northern Italian classic, and tastes delicious on pretty much anything. It is a traditional dipping sauce for vegetables, but try drizzling it over roasted fish. Be sure to sop up all leftovers with good bread, and do not skimp on the anchovies.

BAGNA CAUDA

Ever since a family friend introduced us to this Italian dip, we have made it a tradition on New Year's Eve. You have to really like garlic to enjoy this. I have heard that some people omit the cream and substitute olive oil also. Serve with crusty Italian bread, raw cabbage wedges, lettuce, bread sticks or crackers.
