Tips & Techniques

  • Roasted-Garlic Bean Dip
  • High Altitude (3500-6500 ft):

    No change.

  • Go for Garlic

    Garlic is a phytonutrient--a plant component. It's not necessary for life, but it may have some healthful benefits and certainly adds lots of flavor!

Ingredients

  • 1  medium bulb garlic, unpeeled
  • 2  teaspoons olive or canola oil
  • 1  can (15.5 oz) great northern beans, drained, reserving 2 tablespoons liquid
  • 3  tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/4  teaspoon salt
  • Chopped fresh parsley
  • Assorted raw vegetables

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 350°F. Cut 1/2 inch from top of garlic bulb to expose cloves. Drizzle oil over garlic bulb; wrap securely in foil. Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until garlic is soft when pierced with a knife; cool slightly.
  2. 2Into food processor, squeeze soft garlic out of cloves. Add beans, reserved bean liquid, lemon juice and salt. Cover; process until uniform consistency.
  3. 3Spoon dip into serving dish. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with vegetables.

It doesn't take "10 minutes"; it clearly takes at least an hour to roast the garlic. Why are we to reserve the bean liquid? The idea of roasted garlic dip is a good one, I just wish sometimes these recipes were edited for accuracy before they get posted...
