Method

For the garlic knot dough:
  1. Follow our cold-prove dough recipe. Instead of shaping the dough into four dough balls, divide it into 25-gram pieces and form each piece  into a ball. (Just imagine you’re making mini dough balls and use the same technique.) Then, place the balls around the edges and across the center of your Sicilian pan: You’ll be left with  two well-shaped spaces, which will hold the dips. 

  2. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and let the rolls cold prove in the refrigerator for 12 hours (or overnight). After at least 12 hours, take the pan out and let it come to room temperature (this will take about 2 hours).

For the Buffalo chicken dip:
  1. Place the shredded chicken breast, cream cheese, shredded cheddar, Buffalo sauce and ranch dressing into a mixing bowl. Stir until combined, adding salt to taste.

For the spinach artichoke dip:
  1. Warm a saute pan over medium heat, add the grapeseed oil (or your neutral oil of choice),  then add the spinach and garlic. Cook until softened and fragrant, stirring occasionally as the spinach wilts. Remove from the pan, let cool, then chop the mixture roughly and add it to your mixing bowl. 

  2. Cut the artichoke hearts into bite-sized pieces and add them to the same bowl. Then add cream cheese, sour cream and Parmesan to the vegetables and mix until evenly incorporated.

For the garlic herb butter:
  1. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic, oregano and salt, and cook until the garlic is fragrant. Remove the butter mixture from your stovetop and let it cool to room temperature.

For the bake:
  1. Preheat your Ooni Karu 16 to 450°C and let it warm up with the door closed for 15 minutes. Add each dip to a well in the dough pan; then, brush the rolls with your garlic herb butter. Put your pan in the oven, shut the door, and turn off the flame. 

  2. Let your rip ‘n’ dip bake with the flame off for 10 minutes. The heat should gradually come down, allowing the dough to cook evenly without burning the top.

  3. When the rolls have doubled in size, put the flame back on medium high, rotating the pan to ensure an even brown colour. (This step should take about 5 minutes.)

  4. Remove your rip ‘n’ dip from the oven and brush it with more garlic herb butter. Crumble the blue cheese over the Buffalo chicken dip. Let cool briefly, as the dips will be quite hot. Then — as the name suggests — rip, dip and enjoy.
