White Bean and Sage Sauce

4 servings

30 minutes

White bean and sage sauce is a refined blend of the delicate, creamy flavor of beans with the spicy freshness of sage. This recipe draws inspiration from European traditions where herbs and legumes often come together in harmonious sauces and pastes. A light lemon note adds a subtle tanginess, while garlic and olive oil provide depth of flavor. The sauce is perfect as a dip for fresh vegetables, an accompaniment to toast, or as a pasta sauce. It is rich in plant proteins, healthy fats, and intense aroma. Its simplicity makes it an ideal choice for a quick yet elegant dinner or snack. This sauce can easily be adapted by adding other herbs or spices to give it new flavor nuances.
