Best Hummus Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chickpeas, liquid reserved and set aside ⓘ
- 1 tsp kosher salt, or to taste ⓘ
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1/3 Cup tahini ⓘ
- 7-8 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice ⓘ
- 2 Tbsp reserved chickpea liquid (or water) ⓘ
- 4-8 drops of Tabasco sauce (amazing), to taste ⓘ
- Olive oil, for drizzling ⓘ
- Paprika, for garnish ⓘ
Instructions
- Place all ingredients into a food processor (except the salt) and process until the hummus is coarsely pureed.
- Now add in salt gradually, stopping to taste as you go. I find the salt preference of hummus varies a lot by the person, so be sure to adjust it to your needs. Also, if you use unsalted chickpeas, you may need more salt.
- Scoop into a bowl and drizzle with a good quality olive oil and garnish with paprika. Makes about 2 cups and lasts for about 4-5 days in the fridge in a sealed container...but it rarely lasts that long...bahaha!
