Ingredients

2 cups edamame, thawed if frozen

1/3 cup lemon juice

1/4 cup tahini

1 tsp toasted sesame oil

1 Tbsp white miso

Pinch of salt

6 cloves garlic

2 Tbsp grapeseed oil

Directions

Roast garlic in a small pan on medium-high heat with grapeseed oil or other high heat oil. Flip cloves after 4 to 5 minutes, when one side begins to brown. When both sides are nicely roasted, remove cloves from the pan and place in a food processor.

Place all other ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.
