Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy White Bean Dip with Pine Nuts.
Step 1
To create a delicious and flavorful dip, start by placing the pine nuts, chopped basil, and oregano into your food processor.
Step 2
Give it a quick pulse two to three times until the nuts are finely ground, releasing their nutty aroma.
Step 3
Next, add in the cooked Great Northern beans and the halved garlic cloves.
Step 4
Blend everything together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, which should take about 30 seconds to a minute.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to elevate the flavor! Pour in the fresh lime juice, toss in the chopped tomato, and sprinkle in some sea salt and black pepper.
Step 6
Pulse the mixture two to three times until it’s perfectly smooth and spreadable.
Step 7
As you keep the food processor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil, watching as the dip transforms into a luscious consistency.
Step 8
If you find the dip a bit too thick for your liking, simply add a tablespoon of water at a time until you achieve your desired texture.
Step 9
Once your dip is ready, transfer it to a bowl and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or even overnight if you can wait! This resting time allows all those wonderful flavors to meld together beautifully.
Step 10
When you’re ready to serve, you’ll have a delightful dip that’s perfect for sharing with friends and family.
Step 11
Enjoy!.
