BENEDICTINE DIP
Benedictine is a creamy spread studded with chopped cucumbers. It was named in honor of Jennie Carter Benedict, a chef and restaurateur from Louisville, Kentucky, who created the condiment at the turn of the 20th century. Originally used for cucumber sandwiches, Benedictine is now commonly enjoyed as a cold dip for chips or spread on crackers. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen

BENEDICTINE SPREAD OR DIP
Benedictine is a very unique green cucumber flavored spread that was born in my native state, Kentucky. Benedictine and bacon tea sandwiches are traditional Derby Day fare. It is wonderfully cool and delicious, and is a great spread for appetizers and sandwiches. I especially love it with pumpernickel bread. It looks very pretty...

Steps:
- 1. Peel cucumber; grate over a bowl, using a microplane or fine grater.
- 2. Pour pulp and juice into a coffee filter placed in a small strainer over small bowl; gather ends of filter and gently squeeze and press to release juice into bowl.
- 3. Measure 3 tablespoons cucumber juice into a small saucepan. Discard remaining juice and pulp.
- 4. Repeat process with onion for 1 tablespoon juice to add to cucumber juice in pan.
- 5. Place pan over high heat, bring to a boil, then immediately remove from heat. (This will tame the cucumber and make it friendlier to the tummy.)
- 6. To the warm juice, add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice and 5 drops of green food color gel; stir and mix well; set aside.
- 7. Unwrap cream cheese, place in mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer to beat cream cheese well.
- 8. Gradually add juice, mixing until well incorporated and smooth.
- 9. Spread may be used immediately or cover and refrigerate (for up to one week) until served.
JOLEAN'S SIMPLE BENEDICTINE DIP
This was a favorite of my Mom's....We kids liked to dip Ruffles potato chips in this, but my Mom used to spread it on buttery crackers...Usually, after a party (specifically Kentucky Derby parties), the next day I'd see my Mom spooning this onto a little plate and eating it just by itself! So tasty....So fresh!!! YUM!

KENTUCKY BENEDICTINE SPREAD OR DIP
This recipe was created by Jennie Carter Benedict, a cookbook author, caterer, and restaurateur. She operated a Louisville restaurant and tea room, Benedict's, in the early 20th century. I located this recipe on About.com presented by Diana Rattray, Southern Food Expert. It is also manufactured & can be found in a variety of Louisville grocery stores. Not sure, if available statewide. Often looked for at Derby time. This is one of my favorite spreads/dips!
