Classic Dill Dip Recipe That’s Perfect for Serving in a Bread Bowl
Everyone loves a good classic dill dip recipe. It reminds us of days gone by and those magical family gatherings at grandma’s house. Especially if it’s in a rye bread bowl. Wasn’t that just the totally in think at every 1980’s Christmas or New Year’s Eve party?
Fresh veggies are delicious all the time, but I particularly love having a veggie tray with a bowl of dip in the middle at any large gathering. It’s an option for me to eat healthier and it’s an appetizer that just about everyone else likes as well. One of those constants that I like to serve at my house or take to the party.

Best Dill Dip Recipe
This is seriously the best dill dip recipe. It’s a family recipe, has the best flavor and only uses a handful of ingredients. In just a matter of minutes you have a delicious dip mixed and ready to chill in the refrigerator for a couple hours before serving. Perfect for summer get-togethers, holiday parties and while watching the football game.
Easy Dill Dip Recipe
No secret ingredient. Just a flavorful dip that everyone will enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoon dried dill weed (or you can use fresh dill)
2 tablespoon minced onion
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
Raw veggies like carrot sticks, cherry tomatoes, celery sticks, etc.
Round loaf of rye bread or other type of round loaf that you prefer.
*optional:
1 tablespoon parsley flakes or fresh parsley
1 teaspoon garlic powder (in place of seasoning salt)
1 teaspoon onion powder (in place of minced onions)
What foods go best with dill dip?
I love using a bread bowl (rye bread or sour dough) to hold the dip and then placing raw vegetables around it on a tray. Most all veggies will work wonderfully with dill dip. A few of my favorites are:
- Slices of red peppers, green peppers and yellow peppers
- Fresh green beans (raw)
- Cauliflower
- Broccoli
- Baby carrots
- Cherry tomatoes (or sweet tomatoes)
And of course the bread from the bread bowl is perfect for dipping!
Directions for making classic dill dip:
In a medium bowl stir all of the ingredients together.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the unique flavors to blend together.
Cut a hole in the top of the round bread loaf and remove inside to leave a bowl.
Kind of like carving a pumpkin!
Cut the top of the bread as well as the bread you removed into pieces to place on the tray with the vegetables. The bread is perfect for dipping in the dill dip!
When you are ready to serve and once the dip has been chilled in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, fill the bread bowl with the classic dill dip and place veggies around on the tray.
The perfect dip for serving from a loaf of bread bowl!
How long does homemade dip last?
You can store most homemade dips, like this classic dill dip recipe, in an airtight container for 3-4 days. I personally think that the dip is even more flavorful on the second day as it gives plenty of time for the ingredients to blend together.
Can you freeze homemade dill dip?
Unfortunately the answer is no. Sour cream and mayonnaise do not freeze well at all. The whole consistency of the dip changes. This is such a simple dip recipe to make so you should just make fresh each time and then use the leftovers up in 3-4 days.
