Are you pazzesco? You would NEVER use butter, this recipe is almost identical to my Nonna's! Only the finest Olive Oil is to be used. Good Heavens! She would have a fit if someone used butter! My kids love this stuff, it's a wonderful appetizer, kudos to the chef! I'm making it for Xmas Eve, and Nonna's Cioppino, family tradition in Southern California!

This seems to be the only correct recipe for Banga Calda on line. Hooray !
It could explain Banga Calda is an Italian version of Fondu.
You simmer the ready oil in a heated pot of some type and cook vegetables and meat, or fowl cubes or slices just as you would a Fondu Chinoise (which substitutes water/wine, water, with or stock w/oil to cook the items.
Chinoise is usually consumed at the end of the meal much like a soup broth...hence, less oil and more stock or wine mix.
Butter? Never. In an Itelian kitchen. Who in Italy even uses butter for anything? Try to find it in Italy. They think you're crazy for asking !
An Italian of 62 years in age....

Gosh why are you putting chili flakes and using olive oil instead of butter?.....you are trying to mess up a basic Italian New Year's treat. All you need is butter, tuna, as much garlic as you can stand with cabbage, Italian bread or celery to dip in it.

My grandfather is rolling over in his grave. It's not bagna cauda without the anchovies.

This is very close to what I grew up with. If you like Bagna Cauda then also try Emeril's from his Real and Rustic Italian show. That is just like what my Italian Aunts always made. Yummy!
Thanks for a great show & great ideas.

OK, confession: have not tried this recipie. Why? Says anchovies are, gasp, optional. No way this side of Piedmont. If you use this recipie, please try it with anchovies - good anchovies - the salt packed tin like Agostino Recca. Use the small oil packed tins and disappointment is guaranteed. It only took me 25 years to learn this. Sure, any item you can't hack can *almost always* be deleted from a recipe but can't recommend its recommendation here.

This is such an easy and quick recipe, especially if you use already prepared vegetables. However I suggest using half butter and half olive oil, for richer flavor.

Good basic recipe for bagna cauda. Served over grilled fish. Bagna cauda is an Italian dish, not South Dakotan, sorry Nancy.

This was really great with poached shrimp, and also I dipped blanched veggies. Really nice party food. p.s. Bagna cauda is Italian for "hot bath" and the recipe originated in the Piedmont region of Italy. This recipe is authentic. Nancy you must be thinking of something else!
