    Ingredients You'll Need

    The printable recipe card with exact amounts and directions to make this white bean dip recipe is below.

    White Beans: Use your favorite canned white beans to make this dip. You can cook dried beans from scratch if you prefer.

    Spices: I like to use ground cumin, paprika, dried oregano, salt, black pepper and hot pepper flakes.

    Oil: Olive oil helps this dip to have a smooth texture.

    Vegetables: Scallions, garlic and red bell pepper are essential to add extra flavor.

    Lime: always use fresh lime juice for a fresh flavor.

    Cilantro: I love adding fresh cilantro to my bean dips, but feel free to replace it with parsley if you prefer.

      I'm really enjoying your recipes, I love learning about Colombian culture, and your English is great. I married into a Puerto Rican family and I live in Texas, so I've been trying to learn some Spanish. Let's just say my bilingual attempts don't hold a candle to yours. There's no way I could write my blog in Spanish.

      I'm glad you did start this blog. I started studying Spanish almost 20 years ago, and I'm so happy to have found a food blog like yours to use as inspiration for cooking. And this bean dip has some of my favorite flavors in it!
