The beloved cheesy Southern spread made with pimiento, a sweet pepper imperative to this classic, gets a handful of little upgrades that make subtle differences in taste and texture. First, the flavorful liquid from the jar of chopped pimientos is utilized to perk up and loosen the base, yielding an even creamier dip.

Offer toppings like pickled peppers, sundried tomatoes, capers, or olives to balance the richness of the dish. For a tangier take, try sundried tomato pesto instead of the basil pesto.
