Lately, the dip of all dips seems to be buffalo chicken dip. I have to admit that I love the the fiery kick of hot sauce together with the pungent blue, imparting a saltiness and mellowing the heat just enough. Who can deny licking their fingers to savor the last bits of heat coming off them? Licking fingers that never seem to get clean. Insted, there lingers a greasy film, covered in red sauce and oil, refusing to budge until you finally just give up and grab your beer.
It makes sense that others have embraced the classic buffalo chicken wing flavors in dip form, free from finger wipes and messy faces, especially in the case of the upcoming Super Bowl. So, if you’re worried that serving wings is a sure way to leave lasting prints on your newly reupholstered couch, but you must have that spicy wing flavor, buffalo chicken dip is the answer.
