What Are the Different Types of Dips and Salsas Are There?

Heat Salsa Variations: Salsa comes in different variations of spice and pepper heat to give you a flavor experience as you match it with other foods. A mild or sweet salsa will have limited pepper and maybe a dose of sweet zest to it, making it very tangy and enriching. Spicy salsa is exactly how it reads—spicy! It has peppers in it that will heighten certain sense because of its heat. If you love something with a kick, start with a spicy salsa. Look out for caliente or picante if you are trying to stay away from the heat.

Chunky salsas and smooth salsas vary. If a salsa has more vegetables and you want to taste the physical additives, chunky is the way to go. Smooth salsas tend to be thinner and hotter in spice, the added solid ingredients are much more liquified.

Creamy Dip: Creamy dips with cheese as the foundation and base of its taste are typically much thicker and full of versatility. These dips are great with chips, French fries, and bread.

Sweet Dips: Sweet dips like whipped creams or jellies are sure to cure your itch for something sweet. Consider bread and fruit as great snacks to pair with these types of dips.

Spicy Dips: Spicy dips bring the fire to your snack or dish. Jalapenos are a standard pepper to up the heat in a dip or salsa. Dips and salsas with hot peppers or Cajun spices can vary in heat while maintaining a great taste.

Savory Dips: Hummus is a popular creamy and savory dip blended with various spices and vegetables to make a smooth texture. Classic hummus has chickpeas, while additional flavors will have red pepper, artichoke, or other ingredients that make you grab your favorite pita bread and crackers so you can enjoy.

Fruit Dips: Fruit dips depict several options for enjoying a snack. Dip strawberries, grapes, cherries, and apples into creamy Greek yogurt or cream cheese dips.

Veggie Dips: Veggies dips kick your greens up a notch. Ranch dips and creamy dips with seasoned flavors will increase the enjoyment of those vegetables your kids haven't always loved.

Snack Dips: Snacks dips and salsas are creamy, fruity, spicy, savory and sweet. With Sam's Club, you have options for what you want to dip and what kind of snack you're looking to enjoy.

Warm vs. Cold Dips: Whether a warm dip or cold dip, there is no right or wrong when it comes to how to enjoy it. Without refrigeration, some dips, especially creamy dips, will expire or grow chunky. Dips with a protein are likely best warm. Pimento cheese dips are best cool or at room temperature, so it doesn't melt unless it is a cheddar or queso style dip. Always read the instructions on your packaging to determine how to maintain this product.
