Cannellini Bean Dip
Description
The Cannellini Bean Dip is prepared by combining cannellini beans with fresh lemon juice, garlic, and rosemary leaves in a food processor until blended but still textured. Black pepper and kosher salt provide seasoning, while extra virgin olive oil adds mouthfeel and richness. If the dip is too thick, water can be added gradually to adjust consistency. A drizzle of olive oil on top serves as a finishing touch.
Best served as a spread or dip alongside crusty breads, crostini, or pita chips, it offers a fresh, creamy option for snacking or appetizers.
Leftovers keep refrigerated up to three days and can be refreshed by whisking in more olive oil before serving.
