We Don’t Pick Favorites, but These Are the 17 Recipes Our Editors Couldn’t Get Enough of This Year

“While I usually shy away from most food trends, I am all for the pickle-juice-in-everything craze that occured this past year. My favorite among them is this pickle dip recipe. The breadcrumbs toasted in butter and pickle juice are a moment of culinary brilliance. I want them on everything now!” —Leah Colins, senior culinary editor

“I love a crunchy, punchy frickle. I love a creamy, dreamy dip. Put the two together, pair it with a bag of chips, and you’ve pretty much created my dream app. The pickle juice-soaked crunchy panko topping makes the dish (and clearly another SE editor agrees—hi Leah!)” —Grace Kelly, editor

“Add my name to the list of people shouting out this recipe. It’s everything I could want a dip to be—creamy, punchy, tangy, delicious. I mean, it’s dill pickle flavor!” —Daniel Gritzer
