White Bean Dip with Tabasco

Description

A simple Italian dip, characterized by cannellini white beans and basil. Similar to hummus, you can use dry white beans—soaked in cold water beforehand and boiled for about an hour and a half. You can cook them with a whole onion, a tomato, and a couple of sprigs of dill added to the water.

Ingredients

• White Beans - 10.6 oz
• Tomatoes - ½ pieces
• Fresh basil leaves - 0.4 oz
• Olive Oil - 4 spoons
• Basil - 0.4 oz
• TABASCO® - to taste
• Meyer Lemon Juice - 2 spoons
• Salt - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Drain the liquid from the cans of beans into a bowl — it may come in handy. Rinse the beans well and transfer them to another bowl.

Step 2

Add half a peeled and seeded tomato, finely chopped basil, olive oil, lemon juice, Tabasco, salt, and a couple of tablespoons of water to it.

Step 3

Blend everything together, adding a little water or the liquid left from the beans if the dip becomes too thick.

Step 4

Before serving, refrigerate the sauce for one hour.
