Hi Reader, When I saw Grillo's Pickle Dip blowing up on social media earlier this year, I immediately went to the store to buy the ingredients. The concept of mincing an entire 32oz jar of Grillo's pickles, mixing them with a bunch (and I mean a LOT) of tasty ingredients, then serving the dip mounded over the pickle container looked mouthwatering AND fun! Except the recipe cost $25+ to make, plus the flavors and textures didn't quite work together. The worst part? Grillo's pickles aren't even good anymore! What were once objectively perfect pickles - light, crisp, and fresh-tasting - have become dense and soggy with a strange aftertaste since the company was sold a few years back. Anyway, I put my head under the hood of the recipe, tossed out a few unnecessary ingredients, swapped the pickles for a better brand, and this Viral Pickle Dip (My Version) was the result. Taylor and Hilary would be so proud. π This creamy, cool, zippy, zesty, chip-busting dip is just the thing to take to all your summer cookouts and get-togethers. Pair with Ruffles and/or cruditΓ© and enjoy with all your pickle-loving pals!
