Edamame Roasted Garlic Hummus Recipes

EDAMAME HUMMUS

Steps:

• Boil the beans in salted water for 4 to 5 minutes, or microwave, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes.
• In a food processor, puree the edamame, tahini, water, lemon zest and juice, garlic, salt, cumin, and coriander until smooth. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and mix until absorbed.
• Transfer to a small bowl, stir in the parsley and drizzle with remaining oil. Serve with the suggested vegetables, or refrigerate, covered, up to 1 day.

CREAMY ROASTED GARLIC HUMMUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Cut off the very top of the garlic clove (about 1/4") so that the tops of most of the cloves are exposed slightly. Coat with a little olive oil and wrap securely in tin foil. Roast garlic in oven for 1 hour. Remove and allow to cool.
• Using your fingers, squeeze the soft, roasted garlic out of each clove into food processor. Rinse and drain cooked or canned chickpeas. Add them, and all other ingredients, to the food processor and blend until completely smooth.
• Scrape ingredients off sides of food processor to make sure it blends evenly. If you find that the hummus is too thick, you can add additional olive oil at this time. Add it very slowly, allowing the mixture to combine fully before adding more liquid.
• Serve at room temperature with crudites, warm pita or crackers.
• Optional: Sprinkle with chopped parsley or paprika before serving.

EDAMAME HUMMUS WITH GARLIC SCAPES

Steps:

• Bring 6 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan. Add edamame and cook until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
• Combine cashews and 1/8 teaspoon salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until blended, scraping sides multiple times until mixture has a firm, dough-like consistency. Add cooked edamame, garlic scapes, coriander, pepper, lemon juice, lemon zest, and 2 teaspoons salt and pulse to desired consistency. Pour olive oil in slowly, with the processor running, until hummus is smooth. Season with more olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste.

SPINACH-GARLIC-EDAMAME HUMMUS

• This is EVEN better leftover.

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Slice the top off each head of garlic. Drizzle the cut ends with 1 tablespoon olive oil and wrap in foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove and let sit until cool enough to handle. Turn on the broiler.
• Reserve liquid from chickpeas. Rinse and drain chickpeas; transfer to a blender.
• Add 1/2 of the reserved chickpea liquid to the blender with lemon juice and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Squeeze in roasted garlic from 2 of the heads. Blend until creamy, adding more chickpea liquid if needed.
• Split pita rounds and cut into quarters. Place on a baking sheet.
• Place under the preheated broiler until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Place hummus into a bowl. Make a well in the center and squeeze roasted garlic from the remaining head into the well. Sprinkle with paprika. Serve with pitas.
