Let's get started!

WHAT YOU NEED:

• 2 cups fresh chickpeas

• 1/4 cup tahini

• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

• 3 garlic cloves, minced

• 1/4 cup lemon juice

• 1/4 cup water

• 2 cloves garlic

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

• Salt and pepper to taste

• Water as needed
  

COOK WITH US:

1. Rinse and drain the chickpeas, place them in a large pot with enough water to cover them by a few inches, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the chickpeas until they are tender, approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour.

2. Drain the chickpeas and rinse them under cold water. Allow them to cool.

3. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the cooked chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, water, salt, cumin, and cayenne pepper.

4. Process the mixture until it is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

5. Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning as needed.

6. Transfer the hummus to a serving dish, drizzle with olive oil, and garnish with chopped parsley leaves.

7. Serve the hummus with pita bread, vegetables, crackers, or your favourite dipping food.

OUR TIPS FOR YOU:

1. Make your hummus extra special by customising it with your favourite herbs and spices:

You can add cumin, paprika, or parsley for a burst of flavour. For a unique twist, try adding roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, or olives. The possibilities are endless!

2. Smooth and creamy texture:

Make sure to drain and rinse the chickpeas well before using. This will help remove any unwanted texture and ensure your hummus is silky smooth.

3. If you don't have tahini on hand, don't worry! 

You can easily substitute it with peanut butter or almond butter, or simply omit it altogether. The hummus will still taste delicious and creamy.

4. Leftover:

To keep your leftover hummus fresh and delicious, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. This will help preserve its freshness and prevent it

from drying out.
