Directions:
- Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil; add the lima beans and cook until tender, about 7 minutes.
- Drain in a colander and shock the beans in cold water; drain again, shaking the colander to remove excess moisture.
- Place the garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the bowl of a food processor, fitted with an electric blade and process until coarsely chopped.
- Add the lima beans and process until they form a rough paste.
- Add the red pepper flakes, pecorino, mint and 2 Tablespoons lemon juice and pulse until combined; with the motor running, add the olive oil in a steady stream until well incorporated.
- Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, or lemon juice and black pepper as desired.
- To serve slather a generous amount of puree on a slice of toasted bread and garnish with a few rounds of radish.
