Everyone loves hummus, but throwing some edamame in there makes it even better. Hummus is great for vegans and vegetarians, because it has a ton of protein. But no one can really resist it, not even meat eaters! This edamame hummus tastes almost like a deconstructed falafel, and anyone who tries it once will be asking you for the recipe.
Instructions
- If you’re using frozen edamame, defrost 1/2 pound of them in the microwave or by boiling them on the stove.
- Add them to a food processor along with 1/4 cup of tahini paste and water, the zest and juice of one whole lemon, 1 clove of garlic, 3/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon of coriander.
- Start the food processor and while it runs, slowly drizzle in olive oil. Don’t add more than 2 tablespoons and try to do it as slowly as you can.
- Keep the food processor going until it’s completely smooth.
- Once you’ve achieved that consistency, you can serve it right away with another drizzle of olive oil on top, along with some chopped parsley or even some zaatar seasoning.
- If you want to save the hummus for later, it can be stored for 1-2 days in a airtight container in the fridge.
