Directions
Spicy Red Pepper and Walnut Dip, This delicious dip is actually a healthy and quick appetiser that can be made a day or two ahead of time The recipe is based on one from Alex Raij, chef of a tiny tapas bar, Ta Pol, in New York City WINE: We enjoyed these tapas accompanied by a dry Riesling and I was quite surprised at the great match The walnuts and the chili pepper’s flavors were actually heightened and enjoyable Try a 2005 Riesling Firestone Vineyard Select or a fruity, off-dry Riesling like 1999 Kiona White Riesling , I shared this with friends & it was a big hit! It just took 1 person to try it & from their reaction, more & more came over Very nice, very easy to make I cut the rest of the bread into thin slices & toasted them in the oven That’s what we used to dunk into this tasty dip Great way to use up leftover bread Thank you very much!
