ROMESCO-AND-BUCHERON DIP
If you can't find Bucheron, any other ripened goat cheese will work -- even thin slices from a goat-cheese log. And we like to use the dip leftovers over scrambled eggs or a frittata.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a food processor, pulse 1/4 cup almonds with garlic until finely ground. Add bread, peppers, oil, and vinegar; puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer mixture to a 1-quart baking dish. Top with cheese. Bake until bubbly, 15 minutes. Top with remaining 1/4 cup almonds; serve immediately.
CREAMY GOAT CHEESE, BACON AND DATE DIP
This appetizer is like a bacon-wrapped date in dip form - and every bit as luxe, sweet and simultaneously smoky as that sounds. Here, as you swipe crusty bread through the smooth cheese, you'll gather chunks of bacon and a bit of date, toffee-like from a quick fry in the meaty fat. You could embellish further, with nuts, chile or honey, or you could sip Champagne and dig in just as merrily - with friends hovering nearby for their turn.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a medium bowl, stir together the goat cheese, cream cheese, lemon juice and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Transfer to a 1-quart baking dish or ovenproof skillet, and spread into an even layer. Bake until warmed through and bubbling, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until golden and crisp, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, then add the dates to the bacon fat in the skillet, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the insides are warm and the outsides blister, about 1 minute.
- Top the baked cheese with the dates and bacon, and garnish as you wish. Serve at once.

Steps:
- Toast the almonds in a dry frying pan for 3-4 mins until starting to turn golden and smelling toasted. Shake the pan often to turn them. Tip out and leave to cool.
- Drain the red peppers and tip into a food processor with the almonds, garlic, vinegar and smoked paprika, then blitz to a chunky paste.
- With the motor still on, slowly drizzle in the olive oil to make a dip. A bit of texture works well for this rather than blending to a super smooth consistency. Season well, adding a little more vinegar, if you like.
