Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 head garlic
1 can (14 oz?) cannelini or other white beans, rinsed
1/4 cup water
1 T truffle oil
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Peel off the outer layers of "paper" and cut the top off the garlic head, exposing the "meat" inside. Place whole head in a piece of foil, drizzle with olive oil, close the foil and bake for about half an hour at 350. Open the foil packet and continue to bake for another 5 minutes or so, until garlic is lightly browned and soft. Squeeze the garlic out of each segment, and combine with the beans, 2 T of water, and the truffle oil in a food processor. Process until pureed, adding water 1 T at a time if needed to correct consistency. Add salt (start with 1/2 tsp) and pepper to taste and chill.
