07 Aug Classic Hummus
INGREDIENTS:
30 oz canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans) drained with liquid reserved (I use two 15oz cans)
1/3 cup chickpea liquid
or more, as needed
1/2 cup tahini
1/4 cup olive oil
2 lemons juiced
2 garlic cloves
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp salt
Dips are a nice addition to dairy meals: When they are made homemade it adds a special flavor that clearly adds to the enjoyment. Our family favorites include – classic hummus and matbucha.
DIRECTIONS:
Add all the ingredients to your high-powered blender and secure the lid. Turn the blender on high for 30 seconds (or more for a creamier texture) Add more chickpea liquid, if desired, for a softer hummus. Add the hummus to a serving plate and garnish with olive oil, paprika and fresh parsley.
