Wow! A flavor explosion. I made this yesterday after I found a can of butterbeans in my cupboard (where did those come from?). I followed the ingredients exactly using the cilantro (coriander) and it has plenty of spice. I put maybe a teaspoon of olive oil on top with a few pinches of paprika and it was beautiful. We used it to dip vegetables into. Thanks for posting - I'll use it for my next can of butter beans.
