Edamame Dip With Red Onion And Sesame Oil Recipes

SPICY EDAMAME DIP

Steps:

• In a medium skillet over medium heat, roast the garlic, turning frequently, until light brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, cool, and then slip off the skins. Set aside.
• Bring about 8 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan and drop in the beans. Bring back to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Reserve 3/4 cup of the cooking water before draining. Drain the beans and cool.
• Transfer the garlic into a food processor and chop coarsely. Add the beans, cayenne pepper, cumin, salt, pepper and process in the food processor. Add the olive oil, lime juice and cilantro and pulse to combine. Add the reserved water a little at a time while processing until smooth (you may not need to add all of the water). Use pita chips for dipping.

EDAMAME DIP WITH RED ONION AND SESAME OIL

Steps:

• Bring a medium-size saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Turn off the heat and add the frozen edamame. Stir about 10 seconds until thawed, but not cooked, then drain.
• In a food processor, combine edamame, cilantro, onion, garlic, olive oil, sesame oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon sriracha. Add the zest of one of the lemons to the processor. Squeeze the juice of both lemons into processor. Pulse until mixture is almost smooth, with small chunks for texture.
• Scrape into a bowl and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight. Before serving, mix well and season to taste with salt and sriracha. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with cilantro leaves. Serve with rice crackers, chips or cucumber and celery sticks.
