WHITE BEAN DIP WITH PITA CHIPS

Description taken from Giada De Laurentiis' Everyday Italian: "This dip is the Italian version of hummus, and in my opinion it's smoother and tastier. This is a staple antipasto with I'm entertaining. The pita chips aren't Italian, but they work really well with this dip." We really enjoy this recipe at our house, too.

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 (15.5-ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 bunch cilantro, washed and dried
2 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Toasted Pita Chips, recipe follows
10 (6-inch) or regular-sized pita pockets
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Special equipment: food processor
  • In a food processor add all ingredients and blend until smooth, adding more olive oil to loosen dip, if needed. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight, then serve with Toasted Pita Chips.
  • Toasted Pita Chips:
  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Split the pita pockets along the edge to make 2 circles. Slice the garlic cloves in half and rub both sides of the pita disks with the cut side of the garlic. Stack a few pita halves at a time and like a pizza, cut them into 8 wedges. Arrange the wedges on 2 baking sheets and drizzle with olive oil. Mix and toss the wedges with your hands then sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. To store, let cool and put in an air tight container or plastic bag.

Tips:

  • For a creamier dip, use canned white beans instead of dried beans. Just be sure to rinse and drain them well before using.
  • To make the dip even more flavorful, roast the garlic before adding it to the food processor.
  • If you don't have pita chips on hand, you can serve the dip with crackers, vegetables, or tortilla chips.
  • Garnish the dip with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of paprika, or a few chopped fresh herbs.
  • Store the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
