• Place all ingredients in a small food processor; cover and process until pureed. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Place the drained beans, red peppers, salt, basil (or cumin), paprika, garlic cloves, olive oil, and vinegar in a food processor. Pulse until smooth.
• Serve as is or refrigerate until later. Will keep perfectly at on outdoor party/tailgate!

Steps:

• Roast pepper over a gas-stove burner, turning with tongs as each section blisters and blackens. (Alternatively, place pepper on a baking sheet and roast under the broiler.) Transfer to a bowl,and cover with plastic wrap. Let cool slightly, about 15 minutes. Peel off and discard blackened skin. Roughly chop pepper, reserving collected juices.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine roasted pepper and juices, beans, ginger, chili powder, and vinegar. Process until smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping sides with a rubber spatula as needed. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container up to 1 week.

Steps:

• To make the bean dip: Combine the beans, lemon rind, garlic cloves, chiles and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a 3- to 4-quart pot and add enough water to cover the beans by about 2 inches. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer, cover and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the beans are very tender. Discard the lemon rind and chile pepper and drain.
• Combine the beans, garlic and lemon juice in a food processor. Season with a couple pinches of kosher salt and black pepper. Puree until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. While the motor is running, drizzle in the olive oil. Adjust the seasoning with kosher salt and black pepper, as needed. Reserve in the refrigerator.
• To serve, schmear some white bean dip on a plate. Pile on the Charred Baby Bell Peppers, squeeze on some of the charred lemon and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Season with black pepper and garnish with a sprinkle of flakey salt.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking. Add the olive oil and swirl it around to coat. When the oil is hot and shimmery, add the peppers and cook, tossing occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes. Place the lemon cut-side down in the skillet and char simultaneously until deeply browned.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Slice off the top 1/3 of the garlic head with a serrated knife, exposing the cloves. Drizzle the oil over the cloves and with some salt. Tightly wrap the head in aluminum foil and transfer it to the oven. Roast until the garlic is very soft and deep golden brown, about 45 minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove 4 cloves for the dip and reserve the rest for another use.
• Put the cannellini beans, garbanzo beans, roasted peppers, cumin, tahini, lemon juice, granulated garlic, granulated onion, cayenne and the 4 roasted garlic cloves in a food processor and pulse until chunky. While pulsing, slowly add the chicken stock and mix until smooth,
• Transfer the mixture into a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until the mixture begins to bubble, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature with tortilla chips for dipping.

Steps:

• Char bell peppers over the flames of a gas burner, turning with tongs until blackened and blistered, about 10 minutes. (Alternatively, broil them 2 or 3 inches from heat source.) Transfer peppers to a bowl, cover with a plate, and let stand until cool. Scrape off skins with a paring knife and wipe flesh clean with a paper towel. Keeping stems intact, cut peppers in half lengthwise, then remove and discard seeds. Arrange on a platter and season with salt and pepper.
• Whisk together anchovies, garlic, vinegar, oil, and parsley in a medium bowl. Add beans and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon over peppers and top with Parmesan and greens.
