Ingredients:
2 (15-ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed (3 cups)
1 bunch cilantro, leaves and stems chopped (1 ½ cups)
2 limes zested and juiced (2 tsp zest and 2 Tbsp juice)
2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp cumin
¾ tsp salt, plus more to taste
½ tsp smoked paprika
Pinch cayenne, plus more to taste
Equipment:
Chef’s Knife
Cutting board
Rubber spatula
Can opener
Colander
Juicer

Food processor
Measuring cups and spoons
Directions:
- Gather all the ingredients and equipment. Wash the produce and prepare it as detailed in the ingredients list.
- Add all of the ingredients to the bowl of a food processor.
- Run the motor until the mixture reaches the desired consistency: about 30 seconds for chunky or about 2 minutes for nearly smooth. If necessary, add a little water to adjust the viscosity. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the food processor, ensuring that all the ingredients are combined. Taste and adjust.
Serve with warm tortillas or pita.
