1 hrsForget those little packets from the store. This homemade dip mix takes about two minutes to throw together and tastes leagues better than anything off a shelf.
Toasted sesame seeds, grated Parmesan, celery seed, and garlic powder get bundled into a tiny foil packet that sits happily in your pantry for up to four months. When company shows up (or Tuesday night hits and you need a snack), stir the mix into sour cream, chill for an hour, and you’ve got a nutty, savory dip that pairs with just about everything.
Make a whole batch of packets at once and you’ll have homemade hostess gifts or last-minute appetizers on standby all season long.
Variations
- Yogurt swap: Use plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a tangier, lighter dip.
- Spiced-up version: Add a pinch of cayenne or smoked paprika to the mix for a warm, smoky kick.
- Cream cheese base: Blend the mix into softened cream cheese with a splash of milk for a thicker spread that holds up on crackers.
