Hummus Ingredients
Method
Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Hummus
In a food processor, combine the canned chickpeas, tahini, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin powder, salt, and water. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary.
Adjust Consistency and Flavor
If the hummus is too thick, add more water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached. Taste and adjust salt and lemon juice as needed.
Serve
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with additional olive oil, and sprinkle with a dash of paprika if desired. Serve with warm pita bread.
