Alkaline Diet Recipe #2: Edamame Hummus: Please visit my blog to read all of this post
Because edamame beans are packed with protein and chlorophyll, this is a superb recipe to have
as often as you like. I can only get frozen beans so instead of cooking them I steam them for about
2 – 4 minutes until defrosted and warmed through.
INGREDIENTS
16 oz packet frozen edamame beans
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground ginger.
You can add fresh ginger if you like more of a kick
½ teaspoon ground paprika
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
5 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
4 cloves garlic, cut in quarters
1 teaspoon pHlavor or Celtic salt
1 big handful of fresh cilantro and parsley
Alkaline water for desired consistency
HOW TO MAKE
Steam edamame beans for 2-4 minutes so that they are defrosted but not cooked. These are only
going to be lightly steamed so they keep as much of their nutritional value as possible. Leave to
cool. Then blend them along with all the other ingredients (except the water) to a smooth paste.
Add alkaline water, a little at a time until you have the consistency you love. This is delicious eaten
by it self or added to a vinaigrette.
Variation: Coconut Edamame Hummus. As an alternative, replace two of the tablespoons of olive
oil with two tablespoons of warmed coconut oil and mix in the same way. Place in the fridge and
leave to cool for an hour to set if you can. It will have a more “set” consistency just like cream
cheese. This doesn’t last very long in our house, as it tastes so good.
