Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound frozen shelled edamame -- (green soybeans), cooked according to package directions, drained
1/2 cup low-sodium vegetable broth -- to 3/4 cup, or more as necessary
2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tablespoon toasted (dark) sesame oil
3 large garlic cloves -- or 4 cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice -- or to taste
1/2 teaspoon salt -- or to taste
freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro -- or basil (optional)
To serve: -- assorted raw vegetables

Rinse the edamame under cold running water until cold. Drain again. Transfer to a food processor fitted with knife blade, or to a blender. Add 1/2 cup broth, olive oil, sesame oil, garlic, lime juice, sugar, salt, and pepper; process or blend until smooth, adding additional broth, if desired, for a creamier consistency. Transfer to a medium bowl and add the cilantro (if using), stirring well to combine. Serve at room temperature, accompanied with the raw vegetables. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate a minimum of 2 hours or up to 1 day and serve chilled, or return to room temperature.

Makes 8 servings.

AuthorNote: This exotic jade-green dip also makes a terrific spread for rice crackers. Frozen edamame, or green soybeans, are increasingly available in major supermarkets. Frozen baby lima beans can be substituted, if necessary.
