Updated on Dec 26, 2011

This dip is a family favorite created by my son, Troy, who happens to be a fabulous cook. The intense flavors of balsamic vinegar, garlic and jalapeno definitely excite the taste buds. Great for casual eating with family and friends. Everyone grabs a piece of bread and before you know it, you will have to make some more. We love this stuff, and I am happy to share the recipe with my JAP friends. Enjoy! Photos are my own. Recipe by Troy.
