- 1/4 cup tahini (sesame seed paste)
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves (or parsley if preferred)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, minced

- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine the edamame, tahini, water, cilantro, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper.
- Process until smooth. While the food processor runs, slowly drizzle in the olive and sesame oils until fully incorporated.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. If the dip is too thick, add more water a tablespoon, until the desired consistency is reached.
