tahini paste

salt

water

olive oil

In bowl of food processor combine chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice, tahini, and salt. Pulse to a thick paste. With motor running, slowly add water, then oil, in a slow stream. Taste and add more salt if needed.

I make Hummus often and found this recipe watery and flavorless. If you like flavor try this version; adjust to suit your taste.

Needs:
4-6 garlic cloves, minced
sea salt to taste
pepper to taste
1 tsp. cumin
½ -1 TBS. pimenton (smoked paprika)
lemon juice to taste,  about ½ cup or a little less
2 Tbs. tahini
olive oil, enough to make it smooth, but not watery or runny.
2 oz. water if needed to smooth out paste
