There’s something undeniably satisfying about tearing into a warm, crusty loaf of bread and dipping it into a tasty oil blend. Italian bread dipping oil is a classic app that’s simple to make but packs a flavor punch. My recipe combines extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and a handful of other ingredients to create a delicious dipping sauce that’s perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying with your favorite bread. The addition of Kalamata olives, fresh parsley, and Calabrian chili peppers add a depth of flavor (and a little kick) that will have you coming back for more. So let’s get dipping!
