Instead of chickpeas, you can use black beans to make this Middle Eastern dip. And for a bit of extra flavor, stir in jalape&ntilde;o pepper and lime juice.

Black Bean Hummus

½ cup chopped fresh cilantro, divided

tahini (roasted sesame seed paste)

water

lime juice

olive oil

cumin

salt

garlic clove,

jalapeño pepper, seeded

(6-inch) pitas

Place 1/4 cup cilantro, tahini, and next 8 ingredients (through jalape&ntilde;o) in a food processor; process until smooth. Spoon into a bowl; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cilantro.


Cut each pita into 8 wedges. Arrange on a baking sheet. Bake at 425&deg; for 6 minutes, turning once.


Great recipe. I added some Tapatio on the side when served with baked tortilla chips.

excellent flavor, nice change from usual.

This was also my first hummus and I found it easy to make and very flavourful.  I did not make the pita chips, I add it with veggies.  I will make this again and it has made me want to try and find other hummus recipes as well.

This is the first hummus I have made and it turned out great!  I followed the recipe exactly as written.  It was super easy to make and tasted amazing - full of flavor!  I will be making this over and over!

I added extra lime and salt.  Love the flavors but wish I could get around the grayish color.

I made this last night for my choir practice and everyone just loved it.  Thank you!

 This looks perfect for a fall party!

we loved this!  wonderful with a side of salsa to mix the creaminess of the bean with the tomato of the salsa!

This was fantastic.  I love hummus and this is one I will make over and over.

I just made this and think it's delicious!  I added a little extra garlic and cumin and I would also probably have added the entire jalapeno pepper, but other than that, the recipe was full of great flavor.  It makes a great spread for sandwiches, too!

This was delicious.  I like it even better than hummus made from chickpeas.

This is so tasty!  I used a heaping tsp of cumin rather than 3/4 tsp since I really like the taste, and upped the cilantro as well.  I didn't have a jalapeno so I left it out, but it turned out great.  The color was a little more gray than the picture showed, but the taste more than makes up for it.  I will certainly make it again.

Whether served with pita or chips or anything in between, this Middle Eastern dip is perfect for appetizers. For a bit of extra flavor, stir in Jalapeño pepper and lime juice!
