INSTRUCTIONS
1. Soak beans overnight, or quick-soak according to package directions.

not overcook. Drain; rinse the beans under cold running water. (Can be
prepared up to this point 2 days ahead and refrigerated.)

blender or food processor. Whirl just until smooth. Toss with beans. Scrape

a day.
