Recipe: Herbed White Bean Garlic Spread
Join our Chef at the Market this Saturday to sample this delicious recipe.

Makes about 2½ cups of spread

Ingredients:

2 cans cannellini or Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
4 cloves garlic, split in half
4 Tbsp. lemon juice
4 Tbsp. olive oil
½ tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1½ tsp. finely minced fresh oregano
Additional fresh oregano, parsley, arugula or radish for garnish

Method:

  1. Place garlic pieces in 1 cup of water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 5 minutes. Pour hot water and garlic over beans and let sit for 10 minutes. Strain beans and garlic out of water. Reserve water.
  2. Place beans and garlic in a food processor or blender. Add half of the lemon juice and half of the olive oil, salt, pepper and herbs. Pulse to obtain a puree. Add the additional olive oil to obtain a smooth puree (if puree is too thick, add some of the reserved water). May need to add additional salt, pepper and lemon juice for taste.
  3. Spread onto bread or crostini and garnish with fresh herb leaves, chopped arugula or slices of radish. Serve.
