If you go anywhere down south, one of the staple snacks is a concoction called pimento cheese. Typically made with mayonnaise, cream cheese, pimento peppers, and cheddar. It is used as a party dip or even as filling for finger sandwiches.

More and more you will see pimento cheese used as an ingredient in non-typical dishes. This spring I went to dinner at Millwright's in Simsbury. They finished a dish of Anson Mills stone ground grits with it.

The recipe that we used as our inspiration for this dip came from acclaimed southern chef Sean Brock, formerly of Husk restaurant. His recipe uses pickled ramps, something that we decided to substitute with a little apple cider vinegar and minced onion.

Ramps are a very seasonal ingredient, commonly referred to as a wild baby leek. They flavor is exquisite and they are only available for a short time and are somewhat expensive. Chef Brock states that he buys as much as he can possibly get his hands on during the season and preserves them in the same manner that has served as his inspiration throughout his career. The method taught to him by his grandmother.
