We came up with this delicious dip yesterday making the most of ingredients that are available locally.

Haricot beans create an instant thick creamy effect when blended. The best thing of all is that we grew haricot beans in our garden this year! They are excellent high quality protein as well as being a great source for other nutrients including iron, magnesium, potassium and manganese.

Dream bean dip

12 heaped table spoons cooked haricot beans
7 table spoons sunflower oil
8 table spoons spring water
3 table spoons apple cider vinegar
1 tsp ground coriander
1 heaped table spoon finely chopped herbs (lemon thyme/basil/parsely)
1 tsp mustard powder
1 level tsp celtic sea salt
1 clove garlic (finely chopped)

Place all ingredients together in a blender (except herbs).

Blend until creamy. Adjust the water accordingly if you over/under estimate the amount of liquid required. If the mixture is too running then add a few more haricot beans. If the mixture is too thick then add a little more water (careful not to over do it!).

Add herbs and blend for a few more seconds to enjoy speckles of greenery.

Serves well with oatcakes and salad.

That sounds simply delicious, Trinity :) I will try it. However, not living in Glastonbury, I will have trouble finding the spring water! Bottled water will have to do for me!
