Instructions
- To make the hummus, combine all the ingredients except the water in a food processor and blend for a few seconds to bring them together. Add the water a tablespoon at a time, continuing to blend the hummus, until you reach the consistency you like. I add about 1/4 cup of water total because I like a lighter, looser texture. Adjust seasonings to taste.
- To make the cilantro sauce, blend all the ingredients in a food processor until it looks like a sauce. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve on top of or alongside the hummus.
