Lemony Lima Tarragon Dip
- 1 cup cooked butter or lima beans (fresh are best, but try frozen, canned, or dried as a last resort)
- 1 head of garlic
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, more or less to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling over garlic
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon, or more to taste
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
- Preheat oven to 375. Slice about a 1/2 inch off the bottom of the whole garlic head, drizzle it with olive oil, and wrap tightly in foil. Roast for 1 hour and cool. Squeeze the cooled and softened garlic into the bowl of a food processor.
- To the garlic, add the beans, cream, lemon juice, olive oil, tarragon, and salt. Pulse away to reach a creamy consistency. Adjust seasonings to taste.
- Chill for at least two hours (best to let it sit overnight in fridge). Serve with carrots, other raw veggies, and /or pita chips.
