Saw this recipe on The Nate Berkus Show, during a segment with chef Michael Chiarello. This dip is easy to make, and handy to have around. Great for parties, since you can make it ahead of time.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 pound asiago cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 1/2 cups extra virgin olive oil

How To Make parmesan cheese dip

  • Step 1
    Remove any rind from the cheeses. Chop cheeses into 1-inch chunks. Place in food processor, and pulse until the cheeses are reduced to size of fine pea gravel.
  • Step 2
    Transfer cheeses into a bowl and stir in green onion and garlic. Add oregano, rubbing between your fingers to release its fragrance. Add remaining ingredients and stir well.
  • Step 3
    Cover and let stand at room temperature for at least 4 hours before serving. Serve with crackers, or use as a spread on fresh-baked bread. Or use to top grilled chicken breasts. Makes 3 1/2 cups, about 16 servings.
