Get ready to delight in our edamame hummus, a flavorful fusion of Asian and Middle Eastern cuisine. This creamy, quick, and easy-to-make dip is not only tasty, but also packed with nutritional goodness. Let's dive into the green, clean world of plant-based cooking!
In the bowl of your food processor or high-powered blender (like Vitamix), combine all the ingredients except for the iced water. Process for around 1½ minutes, pausing to scrape down the sides and base of the bowl as needed, until the mixture is thoroughly blended.
Scrape down the vase or bowl and continue processing until the hummus reaches a thick and smooth consistency, which should take about 1 extra minute. If your hummus turns out too thick or chunky, simply run the food processor while gradually adding iced water, one tablespoon at a time, until you achieve your desired texture.
Give the hummus a taste and add a little more salt if needed.
Transfer the hummus to a small serving bowl, and for an extra touch, lightly drizzle some olive oil over the top and sprinkle with a few sesame seeds if desired.

Notes
To defrost edamame, start by bringing a pot of water to a boil. Then, add the frozen edamame and let it simmer for approximately 4 to 6 minutes until it's warmed. Afterward, thoroughly drain the edamame and allow it to cool on a plate for at least 5 minutes before using it.You can also just run them under hot water in a colander.Leftover hummus can be stored in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days, so you can enjoy it throughout the week.
