Amlou Dip

Since my children and husband likes to eat dips, I figured I would try this Moroccan recipe. I thought this would taste similar to peanut butter but I was wrong. It is nutty tasting. I will admit this recipe had mixed reviews. My husband ate the majority of it. I only made a small batch since Argan oil is expensive. It does have a unique taste. If you are serving a Moroccan theme dinner, this would be something to try.
Amlou Dip
1/3 cup Almonds, roasted
1.7 oz. Argan oil
1 oz. Honey

Directions:
  1. In a food processor, grind the almonds to form a paste.
  2. Slowly add the Argan oil to the almond past.
  3. Add the honey and combine well.
Recipe adapted from Food.com.

One year ago...........................I made Popovers with chive and cheddar.
