Photo: Almost-Famous Spinach-Artichoke Dip Recipe
Ingredients
- Kosher salt
- 2 10-ounce bags spinach, stems removed
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons minced onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cups whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/4 cups grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup sour cream, plus more for serving
- 1/2 cup shredded white sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup frozen artichoke hearts, thawed, squeezed dry and roughly chopped
- Tortilla chips and salsa, for serving
Directions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Stir in the spinach and cook until bright green, about 30 seconds. Drain and rinse under cold water; squeeze out the excess moisture, then finely chop.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until the onion is soft, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Stir in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, parmesan and sour cream.
Return the pot to medium heat. Add the spinach, cheddar and artichokes and stir until the cheese melts and the dip is heated through. Serve warm with tortilla chips, salsa and sour cream.

Made this recipe for the Super Bowl, and it was a hit! It was pretty easy to make. I used one box of frozen spinach that I defrosted and wrung out well, because I found it easier than fresh. I also used canned artichoke hearts that I drained and threw into the food processor. I followed the rest of the recipe exactly. Once at the end of the recipe, I put it on the lowest setting on my stove and let it reduce down for about 30 minutes, stirring regularly. This allowed it to thicken without adding more flour. I served it in a hollowed pumpernickel bread bowl. It was delicious!!! I think it tasted better than a restaurant!

Came out a bit too thick & not very warm. I had to add extra milk & extra sour cream to thin it out a bit. I put it in a baking dish, covered with grated cheese & baked until cheese was golden & the dip was hot & gooey.
