This recipe is an invitation to create three unique, flavorful, and fresh spreads that will transform your breakfasts, dinners, and gatherings with friends.

Preparation steps

White Bean Pasta with Rosemary and Lemon

1

Prepare the ingredients. Open the can of beans and transfer its contents to a fine mesh strainer. Rinse the beans under cold running water for about 30 seconds, shaking the strainer until the water runs clear. Leave them in the strainer for 2-3 minutes to drain well. In the meantime, peel the garlic cloves and remove the needles from the rosemary sprig.

Ingredients: Canned white beans, Garlic, Fresh rosemary
Thoroughly rinsing the beans is key to removing the metallic taste from the can and excess salt. Use a sharp knife to strip the rosemary needles by sliding it along the branch 'against the grain'.
2

Blend the paste until smooth. Transfer the drained beans, peeled garlic cloves, and rosemary needles to a blender or food processor. Add the juice of half a lemon, 3 tablespoons of olive oil, two pinches of salt, and one pinch of pepper. Blend on high speed for about 1-2 minutes until you achieve a completely smooth, creamy consistency. Occasionally stop the blender and scrape down the mixture from the sides of the container with a silicone spatula.

Ingredients: Canned white beans, Garlic, Fresh rosemary, Lemon, Olive oil, Salt, Black pepper
The best option is a high-power blender or a food processor with an 'S' blade. If the paste is too thick, add another tablespoon of oil or 1-2 tablespoons of cold water and blend again. Taste the paste and season with salt or lemon juice if needed.

Cottage Cheese with Radish and Chives Reimagined

3

Prepare the vegetables and cottage cheese. Wash the radishes thoroughly, trim the ends, and cut them into very small cubes (about 2-3 mm). Rinse the chives, dry them with a paper towel, and chop them very finely. Transfer the cottage cheese to a medium-sized bowl and mash it thoroughly with a fork until there are no large lumps.

Ingredients: Semi-fat cottage cheese, Radish, Chives
Use a sharp knife to finely chop the radish – small cubes will ensure better integration with the cottage cheese and a pleasant texture. You can use kitchen scissors to chop the chives, which is quicker and easier.
4

Combine the ingredients. Add the chopped radish, chopped chives, and two tablespoons of thick natural yogurt to the crushed cottage cheese. Season with two pinches of salt and one pinch of pepper. Gently but thoroughly mix everything with a spoon so that the ingredients combine, but the radish remains crunchy. Do not mix too vigorously to prevent the cottage cheese from becoming watery.

Ingredients: Semi-fat cottage cheese, Natural yogurt (thick), Radish, Chives, Salt, Black pepper
Yogurt adds creaminess, but if you prefer a thicker consistency, start with one teaspoon. Try the finished cottage cheese – if the radishes are very sharp, you can balance the flavor with a pinch of sugar.

Avocado and Cilantro Pasta with a Hint of Lime

5

Prepare the avocado and toppings. Cut the ripe avocado in half lengthwise until the knife touches the pit. Twist both halves in opposite directions to separate them. Carefully insert the knife blade into the pit and twist to remove it. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon into a bowl. Finely dice the red onion and roughly chop the cilantro leaves.

Ingredients: Avocado, Fresh cilantro, Red onion
Make sure the avocado is ripe – this is key to a creamy consistency. To make the onion milder, you can rinse the chopped cubes under cold water in a sieve. Always be cautious when removing the pit with a knife.
6

Mash and mix the paste. Immediately add the juice from half a lime to the bowl with the avocado flesh – this will prevent it from browning. Mash the avocado with a fork into a paste, leaving small pieces for better texture. Add the chopped onion and cilantro. Season with a pinch of salt. Gently mix. For extra heat, you can add a pinch of chili flakes.

Ingredients: Avocado, Fresh cilantro, Red onion, Lime, Salt, Chili flakes
Do not use a blender for this paste! Avocado blended until smooth loses its pleasant texture and can become sticky. Lime juice is essential not only for flavor but also for preserving the beautiful green color.

Serving and Decoration

7

Finish and serve the spreads. Transfer each spread to a separate small bowl or jar. Drizzle the bean spread with a little olive oil and garnish with a sprig of rosemary. Sprinkle the cheese spread with additional chives and a few slices of radish. Garnish the avocado spread with cilantro leaves and optionally sprinkle with chili flakes. Serve immediately.

Ingredients: Olive oil, Fresh rosemary, Radish, Chives, Fresh cilantro, Chili flakes
The pastries look most beautiful when served together on a large board or tray. Next to them, arrange different types of bread (e.g. sourdough, toast, pumpernickel), crackers, and cut vegetables like carrots, cucumbers, or peppers.

Fun Fact

💡

Homemade sandwich spreads are a great way to practice 'zero waste' in the kitchen. You can use leftovers of cooked vegetables, legumes, or herbs that might otherwise go to waste, creating entirely new, creative flavors in the process.

Tips

🍽️ Serving

To create a 'wow' effect, serve the trio of spreads on a rustic wooden board. Place each spread in a different bowl (e.g., ceramic, glass). Next to it, arrange a fan of crunchy accompaniments: baguette toasts, whole grain crackers, grissini sticks, and sticks of fresh vegetables (carrots, celery, cucumber, colorful bell peppers). This way of serving is not only aesthetic but also encourages sharing food together.

🥡 Storage

Bean paste and cottage cheese can be stored in the refrigerator in tightly sealed containers for up to 3 days. Avocado paste is best eaten the same day. To slow down its browning, cover it with plastic wrap so that it directly touches the surface of the paste, which will limit air exposure, and store it in the refrigerator for a maximum of 24 hours.
