Since I am willing to give most new things a try I thought what the heck we will see what this tastes like. Besides I have all the ingredients on hand.
I am so glad I gave this recipe a try. It was absolutely delicious, I could not stop eating it. My husband thought it needed a bit of spice to it and suggested adding hot sauce. I was not sold on the idea of hot sauce, but some sort of spiciness might work. Then I remembered the Tabasco flavored pickles that are available and knew they would work great in this dip.
The Tabasco flavored pickles do not add a lot of spiciness, it is a very, very subtle spiciness. But it definitely makes the dip even better. I will, with out a doubt be making this dip again and again, but I will never make this dip with plain pickles again.
