Ciao Friends,
The following recipe is similar to a hummus without the chickpeas! It’s something that I tried at Cibreo Trattoria in Florence, Italy that I needed to try and duplicate as it was so good.
The following recipe is without knowing precise ingredients and/or measurements, however I have made it already several times and it is delicious. Enjoy as an appetizer on bread, veggies etc…I personally enjoy dipping jicama, radish, and cucumbers in this dip!
INGREDIENTS:
-1 cup soaked almonds for a minimum of 6 hours to overnight
-2/3 cloves of garlic or to your liking
-1/4 cup lemon juice
-1/4 cup white wine vinegar
-1/2 cup olive oil
-water to your liking depending on how thick you prefer the texture
-fresh herbs such as tarragon, parsley, chives, basil. Pick your flavor(s)!
Blend the first 2 ingredients in a food processor or blender until consistency is sand like. Add the following ingredients and blend together until the consistency is to your liking. Buon appetito!
