Notes

Once everything is combined, taste the dip before chilling. Adjust flavors if necessary by adding more Worcestershire sauce for depth of flavor, a little garlic powder for a mild heat, onion powder for a punchier kick and lemon juice to bring out all of the other ingredients. It’s easy to adjust the seasoning to your own personal preference so have fun with it!
Cover and refrigerate the dip for at least 2 hours before serving.  Garnish the dip any desired spices or herbs such as parsley, dill or Old Bay seasoning.
