Raw Vegetables with Warm Anchovy-Garlic Sauce
Prep: 18 minutes; Cook: 12 minutesAt the end of the grape harvest each year in Piedmont, winemakers feast on a meal that begins with bagna cauda (BAHN-yah KOW-dah), a "hot bath" of olive oil, butter, garlic, and anchovies served with raw vegetables. The anchovies, which are loaded with bone-building calcium and heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, give the dip body and a slight saltiness without lending a fishy taste.
