Method

Preparation of Hummus

  1. 1

    Rinse and Drain Chickpeas

    Open the can of chickpeas, and pour them into a colander. Rinse them under cold water to remove excess sodium and drain well.

  2. 2

    Blend Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Process Until Smooth

    Blend the ingredients on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If needed, add more water, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve your desired consistency.

  4. 4

    Taste and Adjust Seasoning

    Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning if necessary by adding more salt, lemon juice, or olive oil as preferred.

Serving Suggestions

  1. 5

    Prepare Vegetables and Pita

    While the hummus is being blended, slice the cucumber, carrot, and bell pepper into sticks or rounds for dipping.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with additional olive oil if desired, and serve alongside the sliced vegetables and pita bread.
