For a smoother paté, use an immersion blender or food processor to blend the bean mixture after cooking. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preference for heat. The paté can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature slightly before serving for the best flavor and texture. Experiment with different herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or garlic powder, to customize the flavor profile. Serve with a drizzle of high-quality olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt for an extra touch of elegance.
