A delightful cheesy dip perfect for gatherings or family dinners.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and optimal texture.
Arrange the sliced Italian bread on a baking sheet and cover with foil. Set aside.
Covering the bread prevents it from drying out before baking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, thyme, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, mozzarella, smoked mozzarella, provolone, parmesan, and romano cheeses. Mix thoroughly.
Ensure all cheeses are evenly distributed for a consistent flavor.
Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray and transfer the cheese mixture into it, spreading it evenly.
Using a spatula helps achieve a smooth and even surface.
Place the casserole dish on the center rack of the oven. Bake for 10 minutes.
Keep an eye on the cheese to prevent over-browning.
After 5 minutes of baking, place the baking sheet with the bread on the top rack of the oven. Bake for the remaining 5 minutes.
This timing ensures the bread is warm and slightly crispy.
Remove the casserole dish and bread from the oven. Garnish the cheese dip with diced tomatoes and parsley.
Adding fresh garnish enhances both flavor and presentation.
Serve the dip immediately with the warm bread slices arranged around it.
Serving hot ensures the cheese remains gooey and delightful.
