What’s in the dip?

A dip or dipping sauce is a common condiment for many types of food. Dips are used to add flavour to a food, such as pita bread, dumplings, crackers, cut-up raw vegetables, seafood, cubed pieces of meat and cheese, potato chips, tortilla chips.

Unlike other sauces, instead of applying the sauce to the food, the food is typically put, dipped, or added into the dipping sauce (hence the name). Dips are commonly used for finger foods, appetizers, and other easily held foods.

Thick dips based on sour cream, creme fraiche, milk, yogurt, mayonnaise, soft cheese, or beans are a staple of American hors d'oeuvres

dishes/products; evaluate a range of existing dishes/food products; analyse food samples for improvements; gauge responses to a dish/product, e.g. acceptable

v unacceptable; explore specific characteristics of an ingredient or

dish/food product; check whether a final dish/food product meets its

original specification; provide objective and subjective feedback data to

enable informed decisions to be made.
