Ingredients
Directions
1 C. Sliced, Almonds - Skinless, unsalted1 Head of Garlic, remove centers of cloves, IF sprouting or green as they can impart a bitter flavor1 16 oz can canellini beans, drained and rinsed1 C. fresh squeezed Lemon JuiceZest from 2 Lemons3/4 C. Extra Virgin Olive Oil1 Tbl. Kosher Salt, to tasteCayenne Pepper, Optional, to taste
Put beans, almonds, garlic, cayenne, lemon juice & zest into CuisineArt or blender; blend until smooth. Scrape sides and blend again until a smooth paste is formed, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Next add salt to taste. The secret is the balance of salt to lemon juice and it is different for everyone. Finally, drizzle EVOO into the mix while blending just until combined. You should have a nice smooth consistency almost runny. Keep in mind this will stiffen while in the refrigerator.
It stays fresh for a month, if tightly covered.
It serves 20 people as a dip.
