Homemade Hummus

Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free, Middle Eastern, Vegan  | Serves: 6

Ingredients

  • 2 cans (15 oz) chickpeas, drained (reserve liquid)
  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, plus more to serve
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt to taste
  • Paprika, for garnish

Method

  1. Blend tahini and lemon juice in a food processor 1 minute until creamy.
  2. Add garlic, olive oil, cumin, and salt; blend again.
  3. Add chickpeas and blend until smooth, adding reserved chickpea liquid a tablespoon at a time to reach the right consistency.
  4. Taste and adjust lemon, salt, or garlic.
  5. Spread onto a plate, drizzle with olive oil, and dust with paprika.

Notes

Blending the tahini and lemon juice first, before adding the chickpeas, is the trick to a truly smooth hummus.
