Boca di Lupo also does a good bagna cauda, without butter and going the more traditional raw vegetable route. This recipe was provided by Kennedy's sous chef.

1-2 cups of whole milk
peel of a lemon
6-8 anchovies
EVOO
truffle oil

suggested vegetables
cardoons
celery
artichoke hearts
red peppers
fennel
puntarella bases
  1. cut vegetables into attractive pieces and sizes
  2. soak garlic in milk for a couple of hours
  3. simmer garlic in milk on low heat in a bain marie for a couple more hours until garlic softens into a mush
  4. add anchovies, let melt into sauce
  5. slowly add EVOO, stirring in to emulsify; keep stirring otherwise will separate
  6. grate the lemon into the sauce before serving
  7. to serve, place in a bagna cauda contraption and serve with vegetables
