Hummus

tahini

water,

extra virgin olive oil

cumin

3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

garlic,

juice of 1 lemon (2-3 tablespoons)

Serve immediately, garnished with your desired toppings.  Or transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

This recipe is so good! I’ve already made it twice and it’s my new go-to for hummus. I added a few extra garlic cloves and a pinch more cumin.

This is literally magic! I am in love. We use our tall skinny Vitamix container and it fits perfectly and works so well.  Always 4tbsp of water and 4tbsp of lemon. And I slightly cook the 3-4 cloves of garlic so it isn’t raw and so intense.and easier on the stomach/burping.

Absolutely delicious and so easy to make. I just made this for lunch and I’m so happy I found this recipe. This is definitely a keeper.  Thank you for sharing this recipe.

This was really stupendous and easy.  I roasted my garlic to give it a deep flavour right off the bat and it was so incredibly delicious.  The 4 minute food processor time made ALL THE DIFFERENCE!  Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

I too love this recipe and make it almost weekly. The only modification that I make is to not add the two tablespoons of water. I don't have a food processor, so I just use an old blender. What I do instead of adding the water in bulk is I include a little of the water from the can of chickpeas with each spoonful of chickpeas that I slowly drop into the blender. As it mixes, if I need more liquid, I'll use the liquid that is in the chickpea can. I figure that's a tastier option than tap water, and this way I don't waste the liquid that is in the can. It seems to work for me, anyway :).

A+++++ Recipe!!  I made a double batch of this recipe and it is absolutely delicious!  I am definitely keeping this as my go-to recipe!  Yum!

I’ve made this recipe several times and it has become my go-to for hummus!  I add a little more garlic and lemon juice to suit my taste.  A sprinkle of smoked paprika and a drizzle of olive oil to top
 it off!!  Try it, you won’t be disappointed!

I have made this numerous times since I discovered the recipe and it’s always so good!  The last time I used fresh blood orange infused extra virgin olive oil instead of regular extra virgin olive and it was amazing!  Gave it a great flavor when served with a dash of smoked paprika and a drizzle of the fresh blood orange infused extra virgin olive oil!  Give it a try!  You won’t be disappointed.

My first time making hummus and it turned out so delicious and smooth. I used my vitamix for the whole process, and talk about smooth! I didn't even have to alter the recipe much. The Vitamix did all the work! I used SoCo Artisanal Tahini. A whole lemon was enough for the 2 Tablespoons plus maybe a teaspoon more. I might have gone overboard on the garlic, but I love garlic! It made 10oz of hummus, so I used the Sabra container that I emptied the day before to refill it. I am definitely going to pass this recipe on and make some variations of it like you suggested. Thanks a million; from this new, whole foods-plant based, gal!

Boil garbanzo bean for 20 minutes and skim shells off  for a smoother creamy  hummus

Do you need to de-skin the canned chickpeas?
I made this a few time and removed the skins one by one. Is it necessary? Will you still achieve the same smooth texture if you keep the skins on?

Thank you for this recipe! Finally, I have made a keeper Hummus recipe that is creamy smooth and delicious! I have saved several of your recipes, so when I saw this one, I was pretty sure it was going to be great!

So stinkin' good!  As others have noted, this is WAY better than store bought.  I added an extra clove of garlic and am happy with the results.  Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!  It's a keeper!

I thought this was an easy recipe.  It had great texture and far superior to store bought products which I won’t ever buy again.  Excellent recipe!

This really IS the best hummus, mmmmm! Thank you 🙏

So incredibly delicious and easy! Opted for the canned chickpea route to save some time and it is as good as the hummus we buy from our local Mediterranean restaurant. We will be making this again and again!

Super easy! But next time I’m using my blender as my cuisinart just thrashed around the first ingredients and some stuck under the blade!

Excellent! Sooo good, fresh and smooth. I never cooked the chick peas before just emptied from can, what a difference. I have made this twice now and it will be my weekly go to recipe. Came out the same each time. Thank you!

This is the best hummus recipe ever, really delicious. The tip to boil the canned chickpeas is a life changer. Thank you

This was delicious. I left out the oil and subbed with Aquafaba and it was perfect. Ate it topped with some fresh diced garden tomatoes. So good!!

Beat hummus ever! I've been making hummus for 15 years and this is by far the best recipe and ration of ingredients. I get compliments all the time and my kids eat it up!!! Thank you!!!
