Hummus Ingredients

Method

Hummus Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chickpeas

    Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water. Reserve a few for garnish if desired.

  2. 2

    Blend Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Adjust Consistency

    If the hummus is too thick, add more water, one tablespoon at a time, and blend until the desired consistency is reached.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with additional olive oil, sprinkle with paprika, and garnish with reserved chickpeas. Serve with warm pita bread.
