Creamy White Bean Dip With Charred Peppers Recipes

WHITE BEAN DIP

Steps:

• Place both cans of beans, the olive oil, lemon juice, two garlic cloves, sage, rosemary, thyme, and cayenne in the bowl of a food processor or high powered blender. Pulse until mostly smooth.
• Taste the dip, and add salt and pepper to taste, then pulse a few more times to incorporate.
• Place the remaining garlic cloves sun dried tomatoes, and olives on a cutting board. Roughly chop until desired consistency is reached.
• Pour the dip into a large bowl, top with a drizzle of sun dried tomato oil along with the chopped sun dried tomato, garlic, and olive mixture. Serve immediately with your favorite toasted bread, pita, or vegetables.

LIGHTER CREAMY WHITE BEAN DIP

Steps:

• Combine the cottage cheese, vinegar, thyme, beans, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a food processor. Puree until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Chill 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle with the olive oil, sprinkle with the paprika and garnish with chives.

CHARRED SERRANO WHITE BEAN DIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 F (218 C). Spread the peppers out on a baking sheet lined with foil (or a bare baking sheet brushed with oil) and roast for 15-20 minutes, flipping the peppers halfway to ensure even charring.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons (30 ml // adjust if altering number of servings) of olive oil. Once hot, add the garlic and shallot, sautéing until softened and translucent - about 3 minutes. Lower heat to medium-low and add the cannellini beans and the salt and pepper. Mix well to combine and heat for 3-5 minutes or until the beans are warmed through.
• Remove peppers from the oven and carefully wrap the foil around them to steam for a few minutes. Then carefully peel away the skin and remove the seeds, making sure to wash your hands thoroughly after.
• To a food processor, add the bean mixture, charred peppers (start with just 1 if you prefer less heat), cashew butter, and lemon juice. Blend for about 1 minute, scraping down the sides as needed. Then, with the processor running, carefully stream in the remaining 3 tablespoons (45 ml // adjust if altering batch size) of olive oil until the mixture is creamy and smooth.
• Enjoy warm or chill before serving. It's delicious in bowls, as a spread on sandwiches, or as a dip with fresh veggies, crackers, pita bread, flatbread (or gluten-free flatbread), or naan (or gluten-free naan).
• Leftovers keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. Not freezer friendly.

ROASTED GARLIC AND WHITE BEAN DIP WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Roast the garlic: Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Peel off most of the garlic's outermost skin but leave the whole head intact. Trim about 1/4 inch off the top of the garlic to expose the cloves. Place the garlic on a large piece of aluminum foil, then drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil over the exposed cloves and close the foil into a pouch. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until you can pierce the center of the head with a knife. Let cool slightly.
• Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into the bowl of a food processor. Add the white beans, 4 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, rosemary leaves, black pepper, cayenne (if using), hot water and salt. Purée until smooth, then taste for salt, pepper, rosemary and lemon juice. Adjust as necessary. Transfer to a serving dish.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the remaining rosemary sprig - it should sizzle. Cook until brown and crisp, flipping once, about 1 minute per side, then transfer to the top of the dip as a garnish. Pour or spoon the remaining olive oil, now infused with rosemary, over the top of the dip. Sprinkle with cayenne for a little additional heat.
