Ingredients
- 20 ounces frozen shelled edamame (soybeans)
- 20 ounces frozen peas
- ½ cup lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons garlic chopped
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¾ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
- ¼ cup fresh mint chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and then add in the edamame. Boil for 3-5 minutes until tender. Then transfer the soybeans to an ice bath with a slotted spoon to stop the cooking.
- Add the peas to the boiling water and cook until warmed through, about 3-5 minutes. Drain the peas.
- Add the edamame and peas to a food processor until smooth. (You may need to do this in several batches depending on the size of your food processor.)
- Add the lemon juice, garlic, coriander, and cumin to the edamame and puree until blended.
- VERY slowly drizzle in the olive oil with the food processor running until the hummus is smooth and emulsified.
- Transfer to a mixing bowl and stir in the chopped mint and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy with fresh veggies or crackers.

Notes
- This hummus will last for 5 days in an air-tight container in the fridge.
