What you'll need:
- 40 grams of basil
- 1 package of creamcheese
- 2 tablespoons of capers
- 2 tablespoons of grated grana padano
- 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- pepper to taste
What you'll need to do:
Well, this is not really a recipe, it's super easy (chopping + stirring). All you need to do is chop the basil leaves and capers, add it to the cheeses and olive oil. Give it a stir, add pepper to taste, and that's it! I served it with warm bread and dried olives. I've never had this kind of olives before. If you can get your hands on them, I can highly recommend them, they are delicious!
That's sounds amazing! I love basil!
ReplyDeleteYum :)
So do I, and I love discovering new ways to use it.
DeleteOooh, this looks good! I don't think I've ever had capers in a cheese spread. I'm thinking about so many new tastes because of you today!
ReplyDeleteCapers and cheese go very well together. I am curious about the new tastes you're thinking of, might see them on your blog soon :-)
DeleteLooks great, I have to try this!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
DeleteDelicious! Basil and olives are two of my favorite flavors.
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of basil too
Deletelooks really good! I love capers and on my recent holiday I found the most amazing ones, super tiny little ones full of flavour :)
ReplyDeleteI bet they are even better than the ones we have here.
DeleteChopping and stirring is pretty much the only cooking I'm doing these days. This dip sounds great!

I don't know many kids that like olives. I learned to appreciate them after high school :-) I eat them all the time now, guess I have to make up for the time I didn't like them.
DeleteThis dip looks really yummy! That bread shown in the photos looks tasty too.

The bread was good too. It was store bought, making my own bread is on my to do list.
Deletesounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteIt was!
DeleteOlives are the best! Got some with chives last weekend, never had those before. Very tasty.
ReplyDeleteThis basil dip sounds good, and easy to make...yay! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! We have three basil plants and I was getting tired of pesto. This is perfect!
ReplyDeleteLove this recipe. Simple but tasty. Capers are like a magical ingredient...people never know what that taste is! Thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteYou always have such delicious looking food on your blog! This looks great! I love basil.
ReplyDeleteThanks Amber! Only the good (or good enough) looking food ends up here. There are also cooking experiments that look and taste quite disastrous...
