The Green Dip of Your Dreams

The time for sun-soaked potlucks and picnics is past, but we still encourage a little leisurely lounging. Indulge in a dip that works perfectly with crispy crudite that won’t have you feeling too gluttonous (let the wine do that). Created by David Kirschner, the owner and executive chef of dineDK, this dish is ready to roll in under half-an-hour.
