This dip is golden, sweet, smooth and very delicious! I served it with Golden Apple raw crackers and biscuits but the following day I noticed one of my family spreading the little bit we had left on some gluten free bread and making a salad sandwich with it!
The sweet nutty taste of the squash blended so beautifully with the Organic Raw Wild Garlic, the peppery cumin seeds and the sweet fragrant paprika making it one of my favourite creations so far. However, if you can't get hold of the Organic Raw Wild Garlic, you can use ordinary cloves of garlic instead.
