Rosemary & Roasted Garlic Beet Hummus
Makes about 2 cups
1 pound red beets, scrubbed
Small bunch fresh rosemary
3 large cloves roasted garlic (recipe follows)
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup good quality extra-virgin olive oil
6 tablespoons tahini
2 teaspoons honey

Kosher salt
Fresh vegetables and warmed pita bread,

Preheat the oven to 400° F.
Place the beets into a heavy-bottomed, oven-proof pan (like a cast iron)
with the rosemary sprigs and cover with water. Bring to a boil, cover, and
then place the entire pan into the oven. Cook until the beets are very
tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove the beets from the pan and allow
them to cool. Slide the skins off and rough chop.
In a food processor, combine the beets, roasted garlic, coriander, cumin,
lemon juice, and honey and pulse until blended. With the machine
running, drizzle in the olive oil a little bit at a time until the mixture is silky
and smooth. Transfer to a bowl, whisk in the tahini, and season to taste
with salt. Refrigerate until lightly chilled and serve with the sliced
vegetables and pita bread.
Roasted Garlic
1 head garlic
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
Pinch of kosher salt
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Slice off the very top of the garlic head so that the cloves are exposed.
Drizzle the cloves with the oil and sprinkle with the salt. Wrap the entire
head in foil and bake until golden and tender, 50 to 55 minutes.
To pop out the cloves, gently squeeze them out of their shells.
