Indulge in the perfect pairing of warm grilled bread and savory dipping oil!
This week in the WOT Test Kitchen, we created this Savory Dipping Oil with Grilled Bread — A simple and delicious appetizer that can be prepared quickly and we think, should be made often.
The flavors of this dipping oil come together beautifully to create a savory and aromatic oil that pairs perfectly with the grilled bread. The dish is finished off by rubbing the grilled bread with a clove of garlic, adding an irresistible flavor depth. This recipe is the perfect starter for any meal or can be served as a quick snack.
