3 Steps to a Perfect Chair Dip: Technique, Tips For Beginners and Benefits

For many of us, we've dined out at a restaurant before and watched the professionals dip their breadsticks into their wine. This is an easy trick that can help you with dipping your bread into your wine at home or during a party. It's important to keep in mind that this can be dangerous if done improperly and will likely spill some of your wine, so you want to make sure that you're using the right technique for a successful dip. Follow these three simple steps to ensure you'll have a perfect dip every time!

3 Steps to a Perfect Chair Dip:


The Right Ingredients

The first step is to make sure that you're using the right ingredients. You need a wine with a thin, watery consistency and you'll want to use either a red or white wine for this trick. White wine is typically more common, but if you're looking for a glass of inexpensive red wine, try a cabernet sauvignon or merlot.

To keep the dip from spilling out, it's important to use less than 1/4 cup (60 ml) of wine for every 2 oz (61 grams) of a breadstick.


How To Dip Your Bread

In Wine

1. It's important to warm up the wine by pouring it into a bowl or glass first.

2. Place your bread on one of the plates and rest your wine glass on top of the bread so that it doesn't touch the plate.

3. Dip your bread in the wine! This is what will give you a perfect dip every time!


The Right Technique

for a Successful Dip

Step 1: Dip your breadstick into the wine

The first step is to dip the end of your breadstick into the wine. You can do this by either dipping it straight in or by making a "U" shape with your breadstick and then dipping it in. The key to success is to use a bit of pressure as you dip so that the end of your breadstick goes deep enough and doesn't just flop around on top of the wine.

Step 2: Gently drip out excess wine

After you've dipped, don't immediately remove your breadstick from the liquid. Instead, gently pull up on it so that any excess wine will drip off. This will help prevent spilling - if someone accidentally spills some at home, they can just quickly pour it back into the bottle!

Step 3: Enjoy using this technique!

Remember that this technique is easy and safe to use when you follow these three simple steps! It's great for parties and works well for dips like hummus or guacamole too. If you're watching your budget and are still looking for ways to dip pieces of food into a drink at home, consider giving this method a try! You'll love how simple it is and how much easier it makes entertaining guests or hosting a party!
