How to Make Asparagus Dip
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Steam or blanch 1 pound of asparagus spears until tender-crisp (about 5-7 minutes). Immediately plunge into ice water to stop the cooking process and then drain thoroughly.
- In a food processor, combine the drained asparagus, 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, and 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite chili sauce (adjust to taste).
- Process until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. For an extra touch, bake the dip in an oven-safe dish for 10-15 minutes until warmed through and slightly bubbly.
- Serve warm with your favorite savory biscuits, crackers, or vegetables.
