    Mighty Sesame Tahini

    Ingredients

    5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

    30 oz black beans (2 15-oz cans)

    1/3 cup pourable sesame tahini

    2 limes juiced

    1 dry chile guajillo

    1 dry chile ancho

    1/2 bunch cilantro

    Directions

    1. First, toast the chiles. To do this, place them in the middle of a 8×8 square of aluminum foil. Fold the sides up to enclose the chiles in a package so that all the odor stays inside the package. Place the package directly on your oven rack. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes until the chiles have blackened slightly.
    2. Next, open the cans and drain the black beans. Place them in the blender.
    3. Add the lime, tahini, olive oil and salt, cilantro and toasted chiles.
    4. Blend until smooth and creamy.
    5. Top with optional garnishes.
