Method

Hummus Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chickpeas

    Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water to remove excess sodium.

  2. 2

    Blend Ingredients

    In a food processor, combine the rinsed chickpeas, tahini, garlic cloves, lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and water.

  3. 3

    Process Until Smooth

    Blend the mixture on high until creamy and smooth. If the hummus is too thick, add a bit more water or olive oil to reach your desired consistency.

  4. 4

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning by adding more salt, lemon juice, or tahini as necessary.

  5. 5

    Transfer and Serve

    Spoon the hummus into a serving dish and drizzle with additional olive oil if desired.

Serving Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Pita and Vegetables

    Cut the pita bread into triangles and slice the cucumber, carrot, and bell pepper into sticks or bite-sized pieces for dipping.

  2. 7

    Arrange for Serving

    Place the prepared vegetables and pita bread around the hummus in the serving dish.
