Hummus Ingredients

Method

Hummus Preparation

1

Prepare the Chickpeas

Rinse and drain the canned chickpeas. If desired, you can remove the skins for a smoother hummus.

2

Blend the Ingredients

In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, ground cumin, and salt. Blend until smooth.

3

Adjust Consistency

If the hummus is too thick, add a little water (1 tablespoon at a time) and blend until you reach your desired consistency.

4

Taste and Season

Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning with more salt, lemon juice, or cumin to your preference.

5

Serve

Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with more olive oil, and sprinkle with paprika. Serve with sourdough slices and romaine lettuce leaves for dipping.
