Dips and Spreads

Dips and spreads kick off this collection of game-friendly dishes with recipes that offer full flavor in small packages. And they just scratch the surface as examples of how well you can eat by topping a toasted slice of baguette with something savory or by taking a fresh look at fondue and onion dip. Dunking is a supremely satisfying act of eating. My guess is it’s because of some primal connection to our ancestors melded with the fact that eating with our fingers flies in the face of table etiquette. I bet you’ll have a lot more fun eating the Caesar rendition that follows than you will the next time you dig into one with a knife and fork.
