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
Steps:
- Place the edamame, onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, miso, salt, chili paste and pepper into the bowl of a food processor and process for 15 seconds. Stop to scrape down the sides of the bowl and process for another 15 to 20 seconds. With the processor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Once all of the oil has been added, stop, scrape down the bowl and then process another 5 to 10 seconds. Taste and adjust seasoning, as desired. Serve with chips or crackers. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Place the edamame and water into a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 4 to 6 minutes. Drain any excess water and serve as is or salted.
EDAMAME DIP (EDAMOLE)

EDAMAME DIP WITH RED ONION AND SESAME OIL
This recipe came to The Times from Rachael Hutchings, a young mother and blogger who spent three years living in Japan. Ms. Hutchings was featured in an article by Julia Moskin about the young people redefining Mormon cuisine, which is often thought of as casserole heavy. This recipe combines edamame with cilantro and red onion and spices things up with sriracha.

MIDDLE EASTERN DIP
This is traditionally called hummus, and I can't get enough of it. You can serve this with pita bread triangles (I use Recipe #362708), but I actually like to use raw celery and carrot sticks.
