Hummus Ingredients

Method

Hummus Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chickpeas

    If using dried chickpeas, soak them overnight and then cook until tender. If using canned, drain and rinse them under cold water.

  2. 2

    Blend Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Adjust Consistency

    If the hummus is too thick, add water gradually until the desired consistency is reached.

  4. 4

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning with more salt, lemon juice, or garlic as needed.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the hummus to a serving dish, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with paprika, and garnish with fresh parsley.
