Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas. Set aside. Remove the flesh from the preserved lemon and chop it finely, discarding the rind.

  2. 2

    Blend the Hummus

    In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, garlic, preserved lemon, Aleppo pepper, Urfa pepper, olive oil, and salt. Blend until smooth.

  3. 3

    Adjust Consistency

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

  4. 4

    Taste and Adjust Seasoning

    Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon if desired.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with additional Aleppo and Urfa pepper. Serve with pita bread or vegetable sticks.
