Makes 4-6 servings.

This dip is a slight variation on hummus.  I like to serve it with carrots, radishes, cucumbers and warm pita. It’s a great, healthy snack.

  • One 15 ounce can cannellini beans, drained

  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • ½ teaspoon cumin, approx

  • 2-3 tablespoons water

  • 2 -3 tablespoons lemon juice 

  • Kosher salt

  • Freshly ground black pepper

  • ½ teaspoon Tabasco Sauce, optional

PREPARATION:

  1. Place all the ingredients into a food processor fitted with the steel blade and pulse untill smooth. Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.  

  2. Adjust the consistency and the seasoning to taste.
