Best Yogurt And Bean Dressing With Thai Flavors Recipes
YOGURT AND BEAN DRESSING WITH CILANTRO AND LIME
One of my favorite variations on Lisa Feldman's bean and yogurt dressing base is her cilantro-lime dressing. Blend cilantro into just about any dressing, purée, sauce or soup, and I'll be there with a spoon. I use a little more cilantro and lime juice than Lisa calls for, to achieve a pale speckled-green mixture that is slightly zingy; add a small green chile if you want a bit more spice.

WHITE BEAN AND YOGURT GREEN GODDESS
I've always had a weakness for green goddess dressing. It has that creamy appeal that ranch dressing also has, with the heady flavor and fragrance of fresh tarragon, which is the key to its flavor. The base is modeled on the bean and yogurt salad dressing base that the Sodexo chef Lisa Feldman has introduced to school lunch programs. Serve it as a dip with spring vegetables like artichokes and asparagus or with crispy salads.

Steps:
- Process garlic in a food processor fitted with a steel blade until minced garlic is adhering to sides. Stop processor and scrape down. Add beans, yogurt, ice cube, tarragon, parsley and chives and process until smooth. With machine running, add lemon juice, salt, and olive oil and process until mixture is smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Scrape into a bowl. Serve as a dip or use with crisp salads (it's a bit too thick for delicate lettuces like spring mixes).

YOGURTY BUTTER BEANS WITH PISTACHIO DUKKAH
This is the kind of mezze you'd want to serve at the first sign of spring, when the days are a little brighter, the air a little lighter and the cooler temperatures are finally behind us (we made it!). Of course, it's delicious all year round. This dish is all about the layering of crunchy dukkah over tender butter beans with peas and herbs coated in a creamy, garlicky yogurt dressing for the perfect bite. Serve with crisp lettuce, or bread if you like, as a light lunch or as part of a mezze spread.

Steps:
- Start the dukkah: In a small pan set over medium heat, toast the coriander and cumin, shaking the pan occasionally, until the seeds are a shade darker and fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer spices to a small bowl and repeat with the sesame seeds, toasting for 30 to 60 seconds. Add the sesame seeds to the same bowl to cool.
- While the seeds cool, start the beans by making turmeric oil: Add 1½ tablespoons oil to the pan used for the seeds. Heat over medium until visibly hot (shimmering and wavy) but not smoking, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat, stir in the turmeric and set aside to infuse and cool completely.
- While the turmeric oil cools, finish the dukkah: Add the pistachios, oregano, mint, salt and the cooled seeds to a food processor, using the smaller bowl insert if you have one. Pulse a few times until you have a rough crumble with larger pistachio pieces. Return to the small bowl.
- Finish the beans: In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the butter beans and use a spatula to gently coat in the yogurt dressing, being careful to not break apart the beans.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the peas, dill, mint and remaining 1½ teaspoons oil with ⅛ teaspoon salt and a good grind of pepper.
- Transfer the butter bean mixture to a large plate with a lip and top with the feta, followed by the pea mixture, the turmeric oil and a generous sprinkling of the dukkah. Serve the remaining dukkah to eat alongside.
