Sour Cream Powder is a tricky product. I have been using it a lot the last couple of weeks and thought I would share what I have found.
I think the sour cream powder tastes better after it has been refrigerated; I also like to add a little lemon juice to mine. I always stick mine in the fridge until it is time to serve it, even if that is only a few minutes. The sour cream powder really thickens up when it is refrigerated.
I have taken both of these recipes to parties and they have been a huge hit.
Spinach Artichoke Dip
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
2/3 cup sour cream powder (add to ¼ cup hot water mix well, don’t worry if it is a little lumpy, after you bake it the lumps will be gone.)
1 cup FD Spinach (rehydrate in 1 cup hot water and drain)
1 cup coarsely chopped artichoke hearts, drained
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/4 teaspoons
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 400°.
In a medium bowl -combine sour cream and hot water mix well,
Add the cream cheese. Beat till smooth, either by hand or on low speed with a hand mixer.
Add in the salt.
Fold in the drained spinach, garlic, artichokes, and Parmesan cheese.
Spread into a small baking dish or hollow our a loaf of artisan bread and fill the cavity with the dip.
Bake for 35 - 40 minutes or until the top is slightly browned. Avoid over baking to prevent it from separating.
