Firstly I'll start by saying, I have no idea who Antoinette is. This recipe comes from my mother, who was given the recipe from a lady she met while holidaying in the
Kootenays, and I'm pretty sure that lady wasn't even Antoinette. Secondly, it's a bit of a toughie to get a good photo of. Something about a beigeish dip that doesn't lend to food photography but that being said you should make it, it's delicious and without question my favourite veggie dip on the planet.
Antoinette's Vegetable dip:
1/2 cup oil
1 small white onion.
1/2 cup flake
nutritional yeast
4 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp. tamari (or soy sauce)
2 tsp. tomato paste (or ketchup)
1 tbsp. peanut butter
to taste: salt, pepper, chili & garlic.
1. Put all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend. Done!
Sounds delicious. I love nutritional yeast! Great way to add a bit of rich flavor and well, more nutrition! :)
ReplyDeleteHullo Nicola,
ReplyDeleteI'm the original Antoinette, who originally marketed this Antoinette's Dip, yes in the Kootenays. It was called "Antoinette's Gourmet Dip" at that time.
Pleased to meet ya.
Interesting to see how the human urge to be creative has been at play, the recipe having morphed since it left my hands way back then. I think I'll have to try your version, including to taste what it's like with peanut butter in it. Ketchup? naaaa .....
And now I'm all curious as to who the lady was, who passed an 'Antoinette's' -like recipe onto your mom when she was holidaying in the Kootenays.
Hi Antoinette! That's amazing that you found this! I would love to see your original recipe, as this is the only one I've ever known!
