Find your inner child trying their artisan-style cannoli. Del Gardo’s offers more than 80 different kinds of cannoli fillings, most inspired by alcoholic beverages, but some kid-friendly ones too. Make sure to check their Facebook page on Thursdays to see the flavors they’ll have available for the weekend, as they feature four to five new recipes each week. The fun doesn’t stop there they also serve fine Italian wines and premium craft beer to enjoy while savoring every bite.
Notes: Keep the cheeses cold in the refrigerator until ready to grate them.
⢠Juniper uses Dukeâs mayonnaise for this recipe, which has a distinctive flavor.
⢠Be sure to use smoked paprika for this dish.
⢠Juniper uses Crystal Hot Sauce as the hot sauce.
⢠While Juniper uses a flavorful garlicky juice from the pickles they make in house, any pickle juice will do.
⢠The optional ¼ cup of cream cheese adds an extra creaminess and keeps the dip from separating, but it is not used in the Juniper recipe.
⢠The dip is baked and served in cast iron at Juniper, which helps it retain heat. You may use individual 6- or 8-ounce ramekins for this appetizer. Adjust the timing of the bake accordingly.
