Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cloves of garlic (more if you like a lot of garlic - we do, minced (you can do this before you add all the other ingredients))
3/4 cup fresh basil
1 cup mayonnaise (we use light, and sometimes don't add the olive oil and use the olive oil mayo)
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
a pinch of salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • In your blender or food processor, chop up your garlic, then add the basil and chop that all up. Then add the mayonnaise.
  • Next add the Dijon Mustard, olive oil, lemon juice and salt and pepper. Blend everything until it is completely smooth and combined. Put it in a dish, cover and refrigerate for at least an hour or so. This allows the flavors to marry and results in a delicious, fragrant, wonderful Basil Dip.

I make this recipe with fresh-picked strawberries and basil grown in my own herb garden. This unique sweet and savory jam makes a perfect gift-just add a bright ribbon around the top with a gift tag! The deep red jam, laced with flecks of green basil, is so beautiful. -Julie O'Neil, Two Harbors, Minnesota
