Sounds wonderful, David. I have never heard of a milk mayonnaise. Can’t wait to try it. …Susan

Fran, first, thank you for buying my book! I think the dip is perfect for the party. Just remember not to add the olives until right before serving. Please tell me what you think of it!

I was thinking I would need to plan a party as soon as possible so that I could make this dip and not eat it all myself when I remembered I have a bachelorette beach weekend in 3 weeks–some of us are former Williams-Sonoma employees and always have good food on the brain, so this is definitely going to be something I whip up while we’re celebrating our friend’s impending marriage. Well, that is, if the Outer Banks still exist after this hurricane batters the islands.

p.s. I downloaded your book onto my Nook and am very excited about it!

It is a great dip, Marla. It’s also incredibly easy to create!

This dip sounds salty, briny & fabulous! Love those anchovies.

Thanks! It’s a game-changer–I’ve gone from Spanish as my theme to Iberian. :)

Kristin, yes you can make the ahead of time. Just make sure to mix in the olives right before serving. Have a great party!

I’m planning to make this for a dinner party on Friday (in two days), and I’m wondering if I can do step 1 in advance, say in the morning, or whether the whole thing needs to be made last-minute. I’m guessing I can do step 1 in advance, but a confirmation would be lovely. :)

Thank you! So excited about using one of your recipes finally!

Sounds amazing! I have to make an appetizer for a party in 2 weeks and the folks are on a low-carb diet. Could I use heavy cream instead of milk? This sounds so tasty I wouldn’t mind eating any mistakes that result!
