Black Bean Dip
Description
This Black Bean Dip uses canned black beans as its base, blended with fresh garlic and ground cumin to add depth and earthiness. Sour cream lends a creamy texture and mild tang, while fresh cilantro and lime juice introduce a bright, herbal, and citrusy freshness that lightens the dip's richness.
The process involves pureeing all ingredients in a food processor until smooth, resulting in a dip that is velvety and easy to spread. The seasoning with kosher salt balances the flavors effectively.
This dip pairs well with tortilla chips, raw vegetables, or as an accompaniment to grilled meats. Its simple ingredient list and preparation make it convenient for quick snacks or gatherings.
Ingredients
- 15 ounces black beans drained and rinsed well, canned
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin ground
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1/4 cup cilantro
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Add beans, garlic, cumin, sour cream, cilantro, lime juice, and kosher salt to a food processor.

Notes
- Use well-rinsed canned black beans for best texture and to reduce sodium.
