Melly says
OMG, simply delicious! I did 15g Apple cider vinegar and added fresh lemon juice to taste. It was a super hit and demolished in 5 minutes. Thank you!
thermofun says
Thank you Melly great to hear it was enjoyed by all. :)
Heidi says
This is the easiest 'show off' dip ever! It's so delicious and guests can't get enough of it! I use s touch less vinegar and use apple cider instead. Have made it tons of times.. Never failed!
kal20m says
This 'range' of dip developed by Leonie is ALWAYS a hit when I serve it. I generally make a big batch of this when I can get basil on special and then I freeze it in batches so I always have some on hand.
thermofun says
thanks! I love this one too! :)
Lisa Redding says
Im making this tomorrow for a party im having and im wondering what amount of vinegar, if at all, should I use?
thermofun says
Lisa I used 20g white vinegar. :) Enjoy! :)
Or yes I'm sure you could leave it out too if you wish.
Tamala says
Oh so yummy, made weekly in our house!
Rose says
Why use vinegar, isn't this a pesto dip?
thermofun says
Rose this dip was "winged" by copying a well known commercial dip by using the ingredients on the container. Vinegar was one of them! I guess it is in there to act as a preservative. I'm sure you could leave it out if you don't want to use it.
Jessica says
Just love this dip. Will never purchase it again..
Irene CMpbell says
This was perfect.I used lemon juice instead of vinegar.Tasted fresh tangy and beautiful.Would not buy from the shop again.
Jill Ford says
Made this dip and it was a total hit! I'd like to call it "Pesto's Big Brother" as it's like pesto but EVEN BETTER! so easy to make, and tasted divine. YUM!
thermofun says
Pleased to hear you enjoyed it Jill! :)
Leanne says
I found this a little sharp. Mixed it with some cream cheese which I preferred. :)
thermofun says
oh I'm sorry to hear that Leanne. Perhaps you could try again and reduce the vinegar amount. Mixing it with cream cheese was a great idea of yours! :)
Kylie says
Made this to celebrate Aus Day (in Hong Kong!). Very yummy & better than the store bought version! Thx :-)
thermofun says
PLeased you liked it Kylie. Make sure you try the Exotic Thai next time you make one - at present that is my favourite one! :)
Lisa Z says
So quick and easy, I'll use less vinegar next time, can't wait to try the others!
thermofun says
Yes I think I agree with you Lisa re the vinegar. I will alter the recipe on the website.
