Homemade French Onion Dip
The best French onion dip made completely from scratch! This easy dip is a serious crowd pleaser, full of flavor and perfect for any party! Serve with your favorite chips, vegetables or smothered on burgers.
Ingredients
- 3 yellow onions medium size, diced
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- ⅓ cup white wine
- 16 ounces sour cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire
- Fresh parsley finely chopped, for garnishing (optional)
- Potato chips for serving
Instructions
- In a large skillet or frying pan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add diced onions and sprinkle with salt and sugar. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring often. If they start to burn, reduce heat to medium. Pour the wine over the onions in 3 parts. Let it sizzle and cookout each time before pouring in more, and stir in-between. Cook for another 30 minutes until onions are soft and a rich golden brown color.
- While the onions are cooking, add sour cream, cream cheese, soy sauce, and Worcestershire to a large bowl. Using a handheld electric mixer, mix the dip together on medium-high until smooth, about 1-2 minutes. Once onions are finished cooking, mix them in. Garnish with parsley (optional - just makes it look pretty).
- Chill in the refrigerator until cold and serve with your favorite potato chips! I like ripples because they’re sturdy.
Notes
- Instead of slicing the onions, you can alternatively dice them prior to caramelizing. I've done it both ways.
- The wine I used was pinot grigio, but any white wine will do. It's simply to keep the onions from drying out. Alternatively, you can use chicken or vegetable broth.
