Black Bean Dip With Garlic Scapes - Yum

A great topping for veges, grains or eating by itself. Can be made in about 5-10 min.

Ingredients:

2 c black or other beans. Canned will do but best to soak overnight dried ones and cook. Pressure cookers speed up the process.

1-2 cm piece fresh ginger
3 T ground cumin
1 bunch fresh cilantro
3-5 T lemon juice of vinegar

Blend the beans and add the rest. It can be served hot or cold. Keeps about 5 days in fridge. The dip is pictured below on-top of wild cabbage.
