Bagna Cauda (lit. hot bath) is a simple traditional dish here in Piedmont made from 3 ingredients which are garlic, anchovies in oil and olive oil and served on festive and social occasions in fondue dishes heated by tealight candles. You dip in with sliced raw vegetables.
Everyone has their own recipes, some soak the peeled garlic in milk overnight, some use butter, cream even walnut oil.
My way is to roast garlic in the oven and then mash it in oil and add anchovies. It’s lovely, healthy and delicious dish. We ate with blanched broccoli and cauliflower, 3 colours of bell peppers and fennel.
This dish eaten when weather is getting cold, very social not much to cook either.
Recipe for two
160 gm garlic peeled
120 ml olive
8 fillets of anchovies.
