# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's a showstopper that requires zero cooking—just blending and arranging, so you can spend more time enjoying your guests instead of being stuck in the kitchen.
  • The creamy avocado-based dip tastes indulgently rich while still feeling light and fresh, thanks to the lime juice and spinach.
  • Naturally vegan-adaptable and gluten-free, so it works beautifully for guests with dietary restrictions without anyone feeling left out.
02 -
  • Don't prep more than 2 hours ahead—avocado will brown. If you must prepare early, press plastic wrap directly onto the dip's surface to minimize air exposure, and add an extra squeeze of lime juice right before serving.
  • The black bowl is non-negotiable for the visual magic. Serving this in a white bowl is like telling the story with all the drama removed—trust me on this one.
03 -
  • If you want the truly dramatic effect, handle food-safe dry ice with caution (use tongs, never touch directly) and place it around the cauldron's base just before serving—the eerie mist it creates is unforgettable and completes the witchy atmosphere.
  • Taste your dip and adjust the lime juice first if it needs brightness, then adjust salt—these two elements can totally transform the flavor perception without needing extra ingredients.
