Allendale Dip

Submitted by Sherrybeth

"This is from a great little restaurant in South Louisiana. I begged and begged for the recipe until they finally caved in. ***Edited on June 9, 2008--I would suggest tasting the dip before adding any salt. Depending on your mayo, you may or may not need any***"

I needed a dip for a pot luck and since I had all of this at home it was the one. Boy was I glad I did. It makes a ton and it was all gone in the first hour. I brought chips but anything that was at the pot luck that could be dipped was used. It does have a strong garlic flavor but in a good way. So if you don't like garlic you won't like this. I had many requests for the recipe and will make again and again. Thank you for sharing. I did only use 1/4 tsp salt. It was enough but I think the cheese and mayo have enough salt.

We really liked it. I made with 1 1/2 cups each of mayo and sour cream as I am not a huge fan of mayo. It was good on the day we made it but as we eat the last of it right now, munch, munch, it is really good. I can't wait to take it someplace. YUM.

OOOOOHHHH, this is good. Made it for a family event and we loved it.

A great dip. I agree that the salt should be added after mixing and tasting, only if it is needed. My mayo was salty enough and the extra salt sort of pushed it over the edge. No worries though. I just added some albacore tuna and everyone loved it! Thanks Sherrybeth. Glad you pestered them into submission ;)

This is a wonderful dip. My DH who doesn't really like dip said "wow--that's really great." I'm a salt lover so I'm surprised to say this but I think it could do without the added salt. The flavors are good immediately but they are so much better after the 24 hrs. Thanks Sherrybeth!!
