Pinch cayenne pepper or a couple of dashes of hot sauce
Coarse or kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Minced fresh parsley or paprikato garnish (optional)
Instructions
Place the beans, shallots, olive oil, and lemon juice and zest in a food processor or blender and pulse to combine well. Add the Parmesan, cayenne or hot sauce, and salt and pepper and puree until smooth. If the dip is thick, you may add another tablespoon or two of olive oil or water.
If you like, top the dip with a sprinkle of parsley or paprika.

Notes
If you like, top the dip with a sprinkle of parsley or paprika. If you happen to have a couple of fresh herb sprigs lying around, tuck those into the side.
