ROASTED GARLIC AND WHITE BEAN DIP WITH ROSEMARY
The idea of adding a whole head of garlic to a dip might scare you, but compared to its bracing raw counterpart, roasted garlic is sweet and mellow. This dip is garnished with a sprig of sizzled rosemary that's for more than just looks: Frying the herb infuses the olive oil with its fragrance. Spoon the remainder over your finished bowl for a hit of rosemary you wouldn't get with just the minced leaves, then scoop it up with warm pita, cucumber spears, and carrot sticks.

Steps:
- Roast the garlic: Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Peel off most of the garlic's outermost skin but leave the whole head intact. Trim about 1/4 inch off the top of the garlic to expose the cloves. Place the garlic on a large piece of aluminum foil, then drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil over the exposed cloves and close the foil into a pouch. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until you can pierce the center of the head with a knife. Let cool slightly.
- Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into the bowl of a food processor. Add the white beans, 4 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, rosemary leaves, black pepper, cayenne (if using), hot water and salt. Purée until smooth, then taste for salt, pepper, rosemary and lemon juice. Adjust as necessary. Transfer to a serving dish.
- Heat remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the remaining rosemary sprig - it should sizzle. Cook until brown and crisp, flipping once, about 1 minute per side, then transfer to the top of the dip as a garnish. Pour or spoon the remaining olive oil, now infused with rosemary, over the top of the dip. Sprinkle with cayenne for a little additional heat.

Steps:
- Roast your garlic by trimming the top of the bulb, drizzle it with olive oil, and roast in a 400˚F oven for 30 minutes. Squeeze out roasted garlic cloves.No time to roast your garlic? Substitute 3-4 cloves of grated garlic. Raw garlic is stronger flavored than roasted garlic, so only use 3-4 cloves to start. You can add more after tasting if you want more garlic flavor.
- Add all the ingredients to a food processor or blender. Puree until smooth. If the dip is too thick, add water or olive oil a teaspoon at a time and puree until it reaches the consistency you desire.
- Transfer the white bean dip to a serving bowl. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with reserved rosemary, and serve with vegetables, crackers, or crostini. This dip is also delicious as a sandwich spread. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF/200ºC.
- Cut the garlic head directly through the middle and place it on a large square of parchment paper. Drizzle it with olive oil and sprinkle it with salt. Then bring the parchment paper up and over and scrunch it into a little pouch/parcel.You could also do this with tin foil, though I haven't tried.
- Roast the garlic in the oven for about 40 minutes (up to 60 minutes). The garlic will be a deep golden brown color and smooth and buttery, easy to just squeeze out of the garlic skins.
- Add the roasted garlic, white beans, lemon juice, and salt to a high-speed blender or food processor and blend into a smooth and creamy dip.Feel free to stop the machine to scrape down the sides a couple of times if needed.
- Once smooth, taste the dip and increase the lemon juice or salt if needed.
- Roughly chop the cilantro and zest the lemon, then combine the two in a bowl with the extra virgin olive oil.
- Add the creamy dip to a bowl and then top with the lemon and cilantro oil mixture. Sprinkle with a little paprika, and finally some chili hairs. Then enjoy!
- Store any leftover white bean dip in an airtight container in the fridge for between 3-5 days or the freezer for 3-4 months.

Steps:
- In a food processor, combine the beans, chopped onion, 2/3 cup bean liquid, garlic, lemon juice, salt, smoke flavoring and pepper. Process until smooth, stopping several times to scrape down the sides of the work bowl and adding additional bean liquid if the mixture seems too thick.
