Dip
Dips are a low-friction, high-reward way to use Growing Dome produce: roasted pepper dips, herb-heavy spreads, fresh salsas, baba ghanoush from dome eggplant, hummus from fresh chickpeas, and the various yogurt and oil-based preparations that pair beautifully with garden vegetables. From single-crop surpluses to multi-ingredient spreads for entertaining, dome-grown dips turn the harvest into something everyone can enjoy. This category brings together dip recipes built around dome produce: fresh herb dips, roasted vegetable spreads, fermented preparations, and recipes that scale well for both everyday eating and gatherings.
