Step 1

To roast the pepper, pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees. De-seed and de-stem the peppers. Then cut them in half and place them cut side down on a rimmed baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper (preferred) or foil. Roast for about 25 minutes or until the skins are completely wrinkled and the peppers are charred. Rotating the sheet is necessary for them to cook evenly. Remove from oven and allow them to cool to room temperature (you may place in the refrigerator to speed up this process).

Step 2

To make the hummus, blend all of the ingredients in a food processor, adding more or less water to adjust the consistency.
