Ingredients

  • ½ teaspoon butter, or as needed

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • ¼ teaspoon ground white pepper

  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

  • teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1 shallot, minced

  • 2 cups cannellini (white kidney) beans, rinsed and drained

  • ¼ teaspoon tomato paste

  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon melted butter

  • salt to taste

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, or as desired

  • 1 pinch paprika, or as desired

Directions

  1. Lightly grease a serving bowl with butter.

  2. Pour olive oil into a skillet; add white pepper, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Place the skillet over medium heat and warm the spices until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.

  3. Stir shallot into the warm oil and spices; cook and stir until the shallot begins to change color, 3 to 5 minutes.

  4. Stir cannellini beans and tomato paste into the shallot and spice mixture. Cook and stir while mashing the beans thoroughly, about 5 minutes.

  5. Stir sherry and soy sauce through the mashed bean mixture; cook until the liquid evaporates, 1 to 2 minutes.

  6. Remove the skillet from heat. Stir melted butter through the bean mixture; season with salt. Pack the bean mixture into the prepared bowl.

  7. Chill in refrigerator at least 1 hour; garnish with parsley and paprika to serve.
