Ingredients
  • 2 15-ounce cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons Smoked Garlic Infused Olive Oil plus more for serving
  • 2 tablespoons water plus more as needed
  • 1 small garlic clove finely grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
  • Pinch red pepper flakes optional
  • Warm pita crackers, or vegetables, for serving

Equipment

  • 1 food processor for blending the dip
  • 1 set Measuring cups and spoons for accurate portions
  • 1 rubber spatula for scraping down the bowl
  • 1 Serving bowl for presenting the finished dip

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Add the cannellini beans, tahini, lemon juice, Smoked Garlic Infused Olive Oil, water, grated garlic, salt, and black pepper to a food processor.
  2. Blend until very smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
  3. Add the parsley and chives, then pulse just until the herbs are evenly worked through.
  4. Taste and adjust with a little more lemon juice, salt, or water until the dip is creamy and bright.
  5. Spoon into a shallow bowl and swirl the top with the back of a spoon.
  6. Finish with an extra drizzle of Smoked Garlic Infused Olive Oil and a pinch of red pepper flakes if you want a little spark.
  7. Serve with warm pita, crackers, or fresh vegetables.

Notes

Rinse the beans well so the dip stays clean and smooth in flavor. If you want a looser texture for spreading, blend in another tablespoon or two of water. The dip can be made a few hours ahead and chilled until serving. Avoid writing or serving this as a health-focused recipe; keep the language in the kitchen lane.
