Notes
- Use high-quality ingredients: This is a simple dip, so make sure to use fresh edamame, high-quality tahini, and fresh lemon juice for the very best flavor.
- For thinner/thicker dip: Adjust how much water (or ice) you add.
- For the creamiest dip: Blend the ingredients thoroughly, pausing to scrape the sides of the jug as needed. Also, warm edamame beans break down best, then the ice helps to make a super fluffy, creamy texture.
