What You Need for Roasted Garlic Baked Boursin Dip
Boursin cheese lends a creamy, indulgent texture and a savory, herby taste. It’s what gives this dip its creamy texture! Garlic infuses the dip with a rich, aromatic flavor when roasted. Olive oil adds richness and helps roast the garlic and tomatoes to perfection. Cherry tomatoes burst with juicy sweetness, adding a fresh element to the dip. Tomato paste provides depth of flavor and enhances the savory notes of the dish. Diced white onion adds a subtle sweetness and texture to the dip. Red pepper flakes bring a touch of heat to the finished dip. Fresh chives add a pop of color and a mild onion flavor, making it a perfect garnish for this dip.
Easy Variations & Substitutions
Boursin cheese: We used garlic and chive Boursin cheese, but any flavor will work. Baked Boursin Pasta Using another variety of cheese: You can replace the Boursin with goat cheese logs if necessary. Cherry tomatoes: We love the flavor and size of cherry tomatoes, but any variety of tomato will work as long as they’re cut to a similar size as cherry tomatoes for roasting. Onion: White onion adds a subtle flavor that we love, but yellow onion or shallot will also work. Amp up the spice: Double the red pepper flakes to give this dip a little extra heat.
