Title: Capsicum and Sundried Tomato Dip question
Post by: TamG on November 24, 2012, 11:38:56 am

I have this dip on my list to make for a family 21st next week.  Would it be better to roast the capsicum first?  Or is the flavour nice using raw?

Also I need double the recipe, so can I just do this in one batch?

I am also making French Onion Dip from Judydawn and Beetroot, Parmesan and Cashew Dip - but I have made both of these before and they taste excellent.

Good idea TamG, that's exactly what I did when I made it.  I love roasted red capsicum but am not so keen on raw capsicums.  Anything roasted has to taste better.

Thanks Judydawn and an extra big thankyou for your fantastic French Onion dip.  I made it for friends last Christmas and they still remembered how good it was this year when they asked me to do the dips for the 21st!

I am not overly fond of capsicum but have never roasted mine for this dip. It gets fairly crunched up. Does the roasted capsicum make it soggy at all Judy?
