Edamame “hummus” by Ellie Krieger

From my favorite FoodNetwork show, Healthy Appetite with Ellie Krieger, comes this tantalizing recipe for hummus. I love edamame, so I can’t wait to try this one!

Edamame “Hummus”

2 cups shelled edamame, cooked according to package directions

1 cup silken tofu, briefly drained of excess liquid

1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste

3 cloves garlic

1/4 cup olive oil

1/3 cup lemon juice, plus more, to taste

1 1/2 teaspoons cumin, plus more, for garnish

Set 1 tablespoon of edamame aside for a garnish. Place the rest of the edamame, tofu, salt, garlic, oil, lemon juice, and 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin in the bowl of a food processor and process until very smooth, about 2 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper, plus more lemon juice, if desired. Remove to a serving bowl and garnish with reserved edamame, and some cumin.
