Warm Cannellini Bean Purée

Prep time 20 minutes Servings 4

This warm cannellini bean purée blends simmered beans, garlic, rosemary, and a generous pour of olive oil into something creamy enough to eat with a spoon, no cream required. Biancolilla N°07's own rosemary note carries through the whole pot.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons Biancolilla N°07, plus more for serving
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 sprig fresh rosemary
2 (15-ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained
1/2 cup water or broth
Salt and pepper, to taste
Lemon juice, to taste

Instructions

Heat Biancolilla N°07 in a saucepan over medium-low heat, then add the garlic and rosemary sprig and cook gently for about 2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned, lower the heat if the garlic starts to color.
Add the drained beans and water or broth, stir to combine, and simmer 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through and starting to soften further.
Remove and discard the rosemary sprig.
Blend the mixture until smooth using an immersion blender directly in the pot, or carefully transfer to a food processor or blender and puree, adding a splash more water if it's too thick.
Season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice, tasting as you go.
Spoon into a serving bowl while warm and finish with a generous final drizzle of Biancolilla N°07.
