Hummus

recipe: Appetizer

Cooking Instructions: Add one 15oz can chickpeas (which contains about 10 oz of chickpeas after draining the water), with 1/4 cup (about 2 ounces) fresh lemon juice, 1/4 cup (about 2 ounces) well-stirred tahini, 1 small garlic clove (minced), 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving (1 oz). Add 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin and salt to taste. Add2 to 3 tablespoons (45ml) cold water and optionally add a dash of ground paprika, sumac, or Za’atar.

Note: Tahini, which is an essential ingredient for making hummus, is just sesame paste. For the purposes of this recipe analysis, tahini is represented by 1 oz of sesame oil and 1 oz of sesame seed.

In the bowl of a food processor, combine the tahini and lemon juice and process for 1 minute. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl, then process for 30 seconds more. This extra time helps “whip” or “cream” the tahini, making the hummus smooth and creamy. Next Add the olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, and a 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the whipped tahini and lemon juice. Process for 30 seconds, scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl, and then process for another 30 seconds or until well blended. Then Add half of the chickpeas to the food processor and process for 1 minute. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl, then add the remaining chickpeas and process them until thick and relatively smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
