Method
- 1
Place the cannellini white kidney beans in a colander, rinse thoroughly with cool water, and let them drain completely for 2 minutes.
- 2
Add the drained cannellini white kidney beans, whole tahini, chopped garlic, dried oregano, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the bowl of a food processor (2 minutes).
- 3
Pulse the ingredients repeatedly until roughly chopped, then run the processor on high for 1 minute until a thick, coarse puree forms, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a silicone spatula (2 minutes).
- 4
Turn the processor back on low speed and slowly pour the extra-virgin olive oil and cold water through the feed tube, processing continuously for 2 to 3 minutes until the dip is light, whipped, and exceptionally smooth.
- 5
Spoon the finished dip into a wide, shallow serving bowl, using the back of a spoon to create circular decorative grooves on top before serving (1 minute).
For an even silkier texture, let the dip rest refrigerated in an airtight container for an hour to allow the garlic and oregano flavors to meld. Store leftovers chilled for up to 4 days.
