The BEST Creamy Balsamic Bread Dip
Our creamy balsamic bread dip is the BEST olive oil and vinegar bread dip. It's the perfect appetizer for a party or fancy dinner!
I love carbs. I am a sucker for breads and noodles and it's no wonder everything I pin on Pinterest ends up being one or the other.
Bread Dip
When I was growing up, for special "fancy" meals my mom would buy fresh bread and set out olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping, like they do at nice Italian restaurants. I loved it.
Then, a year ago, a friend of my mother-in-law's introduced us to this recipe. I love how it has the same delicious oil and balsamic taste that I've always loved. Now it's in one perfect bowl. It's quick and easy to make, and is sure to please a crowd.

What is the best bread for dipping in oil and vinegar, or this creamy balsamic dip?
I like to use a fresh baguette or ciabatta bread, which is what they serve in Italian restaurants! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go eat a whole loaf of bread with this dip and blame it on my pregnant state.

Super yummy dip! I did a little less balsamic than called for, and added about 1/4 c grated Romano cheese. It went super well with focaccia bread.
This bread dip is my secret weapon when we have guests over for a nice dinner. It's always a hit and so simple to make.
WOW! My kids absolutely loved this. I asked them to make it for me for Mother's Day :)
This bread dip is amazing and versatile. I tried it with some kinds of bread, also with crackers and I loved it. So good!
I think as is that this is more like 2 stars, but it has great potential and for that reason I give it 4 stars. IMHO the balsamic should be cut to 2 T and the garlic to 2-3 cloves. Without a change it is unbelievably strong and almost not edible. I just kept adding more eevo and mayo until I had the right mix and I needed to more than double those ingredients.
Also, please note that the brand of Balsamic can make or break this recipe. I bought some inexpensive Raley's Balsamic vinegar on sale and used that first and it was so terrible that I had to throw it out (after doing a side by side taste test). Then I made it with Balsamic vinegar from Costco and it was so good... completely different. I had no idea there could be such a big difference. Trust me on this! I will throw away my cheap balsamic even though I hate to be wasteful.
Thank you!
