Appetizers

Dill Pickle & Horseradish Yogurt Dip

Greek yogurt loosened with pickle brine, loaded with chopped dill pickles, and spiked with prepared horseradish dip. Cold, sharp, and built for raw celery, carrots, and broccoli.

Olive Tapenade for Pimento Cheese

Two olives with opposite jobs -- buttery Castelvetrano, briny Greek -- chopped by hand with lemon, red onion, and cilantro, then spooned over a block of pimento cheese. A knife, a board, and no cooked anything.

Quick Cajun Slaw

A sharp, garlicky vinegar slaw with just enough mayonnaise to bind it -- Creole mustard and Louisiana hot sauce doing the work a heavy dressing usually does. Ten minutes, one bowl, no cooking.

Whipped Apple Butter & Walnut Dip

Cream cheese beaten until it stops being a brick, then loosened with apple butter and shot through with toasted-tasting walnuts. The sweet end of a charcuterie board, and the only thing on it that wants a spoon.
