Hummus Ingredients

Method

Hummus Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chickpeas

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

  2. 2

    Blend the Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Adjust Consistency

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

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with paprika and chopped parsley, if desired.
