This is great with chips, veggies or a topping for a baked potato. When serving I use a round loaf of dark rye bread. Cut off the top & hollow out the inside. Make the dip, scoop into the loaf of bread & replace the top. Do this a day ahead so the dip can soak into the bread. Put the bread from the middle of the loaf in a baggie to keep fresh. When ready to put on the table put the loaf in the middle of a platter & tear the remaining bread into small dipping size pieces & put around the loaf. When the dip gets low you can start tearing the loaf apart. This is the best part because it has been sitting, soaking up the dip!! A family favorite.

I think this is a good basis for the dip, but I ended up adding a bit more mayo for more of a zip. Otherwise it was too sour cream like for my taste. Also, I added a significant larger amount of dill and bit more Beau Monde. It turned out great and just what I was looking for. Great for veggies, but even better in a bread bowl and used to dip bread pieces or crackers in.

This is the best dill dip recipe!I used light mayo and light sour cream and it was excellent!Make sure to make a day in advance then you do not have to rehyrate the onion.

This recipe replaces all of my dill recipes. Prepared with a little less mayo, otherwise fixed as directed. Thank you so much for sharing.

My mom has made this ever since I can remember. It is my favorite dip for fresh vegatables. However, I use a Tablespoon of fresh, minced, yellow onion. I typically make it the night before because it is best after refrigeration.

Absolutely wonderful! I used it with the Almost Beau Monde recipe also found on this site. I didn't have any dried onion so I just used onion powder and it came out wonderful. I'll definately be making this again!

I love this recipe. My family and friends thinks it is great. They all ask for the recipe. The only think I do differently is - I add a tablespoon of chopped fresh dill weed. It adds lot of flavor and looks good too. My husband puts it on his smoked salmon with tomato and capers. He gives it 5 stars as well. Thank you for a great dip.

We've used a version of this for years and LOVE it. We use chopped green onions in place of the dried and serve it in a pumpernickel bread bowl. The pumpernickel is also really good with the dip.

I love this recipe. I make this every year and yes, it best made the day before. I follow the recipe exactly and each time it is perfect. I would not change a thing. I keep Beau Monde on hand, this is so good any time of the year!

My mom has made this dip since before I was born and I love it. If you make it the night before you don't have to rehydrate the onion, just dump it in still dry and hard. It'll soften just fine. You can thin it with milk for salad dressing. For those not in the know, "Beau Monde" is a seasoned salt made by Spice Islands brand. There is a sub for it here on allrecipes but I've never tried it. You might want to if Spice Islands brand isn't available in your area. You could sub a different seasoned salt for it, but it is very strongly flavored so the dip won't be the same (not to say bad, just different).

I needed dip for my vegetables and I was out of ranch dressing. I don't know what Beau Monde dressing is so I just used some cajun seasoning. This is good.
