Baked Asparagus Dip -Step by Step Guide
It’s really, really good! It’s also cursed. Every time I make this dip, the clouds show up, which makes the lighting bad and the shots dull. After making it more than 100 times, you’d think I’d get a break, right? Not at all! Because of the bad shots, I’ve been afraid to post it for a long time. But I’m finally going to take the chance and do it so I can share this dip with you.

Instructions
Warm the oven or toaster oven up to 350 F. Cut the ends off of your asparagus and blanch them in a thin layer of hot water for just one minute. This will make the stalks bright green and soft. Immediately put the spears in a bowl of ice water or rinse them with very cold water to stop the cooking. Then, strain the spears.
Put them in the food processor and pulse a few times to make a mush. One huge cup of beautiful green mush is what you’ll need. Put the cheeses, smashed garlic, and spices in a food processor. Pulse the machine to mix the ingredients. Try the herbs and change them to suit your taste.
Put the mixture in a baking dish. Add some extra chopped cheese and a thin layer of panko bread crumbs on top. Add a thin layer of olive oil on top, and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden and bubbly. Grab some crunchy tortilla chips and your favourited dips and dive in!

Serving Suggestions For Asparagus Dip
Throw in some white corn tortilla chips, fluffy pita bread, zucchini rounds, and even blanched and chilled asparagus pieces to go with it. You read that right! Drizzling asparagus in asparagus dip is kind of cool, even though it kind of feels like eating vegetables. Though zucchini does pretty well if you don’t want to deal with the debate!
I’ve been making this dip for years because I LOVE it. It feels a lot like a light and airy cheese souffle [um, YUM!]. and how it tastes? It tastes like artichoke and spinach dip that is hot and bubbly. Also, asparagus is in season right now, so get some of these tasty sticks and start cooking!
