Spicy White Bean Dip

Homemade spicy sriracha, fresh chilies sauces and pretty much anything with dip recipes has been on our eating repertoire as of late. Since making our last batch of spicy garlic knots, cravings for more heat keeps our stomachs rumbling for daily spice. Just the other day, we were making our latest batch of homemade kim chi and went triple the spicy level! Fingers crossed we don’t regret adding all that heat.

White Bean or Cannellini Beans

We love the creamy texture of white beans and cannellini beans. When blended, the beans always end up creamy and fantastic. The smooth texture has a much better mouthfeel. They’re not gritty or dry, so it doesn’t take as much time to keep blending them. Great Northern beans are very similar as well and are perfect for this dip.

Can you use garbanzo beans or chick peas?

Sure, you can use canned garbanzo or chick peas.

  • These beans are more dry so you’ll need to add more water (or olive oil) to get the beans smooth and creamy.
  • As you’re blending them, stir the dip often in between blending.
  • Scraping down the sides helps as well so all the beans can be evenly incorporated into the dip.

Make-ahead party dip

You can make this dip about 3 days ahead of time. It’s that easy! We’ll make it and pour it into the bowl that we want to serve during the party. When we’re ready to serve, we just bring out the bowl and surround it with some crackers, toasted bread or fresh cut vegetables. That’s why this spicy white bean dip or cannellini bean dip is one of our favorite party appetizers. And best of all, the Asian flavors are fantastic.

Spicy Asian White Bean Dip

Yield: 4 Servings

Prep Time: 10 minutes mins

Total Time: 10 minutes mins

This bean dip recipe is probably one of the easiest we've made and one of the crowd favorites. It's quite healthy and rather than dip with chips, we'll use raw vegetables.

We love white beans because they're more moist and creamy. If using canned chickpeas, you might need more water because the beans are more dense and drier.Adjust the water amount to the beans used and your preferred texture. Start with 2 Tablespoons of water.

    I make dips every weekend for our drinking and movie night at home. This was the best I have made so far. Very easy. I used the full sriracha amount. I added a bit of vegetable broth near the end instead of OIL. I used the smaller amount of soy sauce. Curry was perfect.Spicy White Bean Dip Recipe w Sriracha Hummus | White On Rice Couple (14)
