homemade hummus

This one little trick will give you the smoothest hummus you've ever had. Basic ingredients - no tahini required. My favorite hummus ever.

Super Easy Homemade Hummus

chickpeas

garlic

olive oil

water

salt

Remove the skins from the chickpeas by gently pinching them until the skin comes off. Discard the skins and reserve the chickpeas.

Place de-skinned chickpeas in a blender or food processor with garlic, olive oil, ¼ cup water, and salt. Blend or puree until very smooth, adding the remaining water one tablespoon at a time if the mixture is too sticky to move through the blender. Once the mixture is going, you can stream in a little bit more olive oil to help achieve a super creamy texture.

Serve on pitas, crackers, veggies, or sandwiches. Adjust seasonings as you like!

I did this recipe with a nutribullet and it really shredded the skins.

I never peeled them before but i did this time and it was worth it, much nicer texture. This has been my best hummus yet. It was a little bland tho, mabey ill ad some paprika or lemon next time.

Hi, Lindsay - 
I have tried, and tried, and TRIED to make homemade hummus but each and every time it was a FAIL!  This recipe - oh, so simple - and oh! so yummy!

I will tell you - I am probably a little over zealous of my VitaMix, and it completely shreds, creams, and makes non-existent those little pea covers.  You aught to think about adding one of those to your wish list as well.  Makes INCREDIBLE homemade peanut butter in a SNAP!

Tahini is very easy to make, especially since you have a food processor and a blender.

I will totally try this easy and awesome recipe :)

Thanks

Hi! I love this recipe,  and that there's no tahini! Tahini seems to overpower the flavor of chickpeas that have a wonderful flavor on their own. Question;  is the serving size a standard 2 tbsp? I'm not seeing it anywhere but perhaps I'm overlooking it. Thanks!

Hmm. I never would have thought to peel the chick peas but I'm excited to give it a try. I also have some roasted red peppers that need to be used up so I think I'll whoosh them in there, too (why do those darn things gets moldy so fast?!).

Thanks for the tip on pealing the chick peas.  I might try it one day.  I am lazy though :)  Do you every ad any Greek yogurt or Tadzhik to it?  I usually add one or two tablespoons to it.   Now I am going to have to google Authentic hummus and see what I am missing.

Lindsay, you genius! I thought I knew every hummus recipe under the sun, but never have I heard or thought of peeling the skins! I'll be honest, when I first read that I thought the heat had gone to your head and you were a little crazy... But then I saw that dish of the creamiest hummus I've ever seen and realised that you're a genius :) now to get the husband to start peeling chickpeas for me...

Am also someone who could not live without hommus and make myself most of the time: from scratch and usually without rubbing the skins off.  Umm, perhaps the silky smoothness is not present, but I have a few more minutes of time in my day :D !  Lovely simple recipe!!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cans chickpeas
• 1 clove garlic
• 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
• Up to ½ cup water
• ½ teaspoon salt

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Remove the skins from the chickpeas by gently pinching them until the skin comes off. Discard the skins and reserve the chickpeas.
2. Place de-skinned chickpeas in a blender or food processor with garlic, olive oil, ¼ cup water, and salt. Blend or puree until very smooth, adding the remaining water one tablespoon at a time if the mixture is too sticky to move through the blender. Once the mixture is going, you can stream in a little bit more olive oil to help achieve a super creamy texture.
3. Serve on pitas, crackers, veggies, or sandwiches. Adjust seasonings as you like!

NOTES

I love garlic, but even two cloves can make for some very garlicky hummus that will hang with you for several hours. If you have an aversion to garlic, use a little garlic salt instead or start with half of a clove. You can always add more, but you can't take it out once it's been blended together! Another option is roasting or sautéing the garlic before blending to help tone down the garlic "bite".

Roasted Cauli Hummus Bowls Step 3

What a brillant idea! This is a great option for some vegan company I'm having this weekend. I'll swap out tomatoes for red peppers (due to intolerance) and add roasted zucchini along with the cauliflower for extra colour.

thank you for this recipe!  this is day two of me having this meal for lunch.  the flavors of the roasted cauliflower were so so good - love this combination. I ended up stuffing the entire "bowl" mixture into a pita and eating it that way, as it was easier for me to keep all the toppings contained.  I added feta and green olives as well.

Looks like a good dish to make for my husband. Nice and healthy!

This was delicious for lunch today!  I took a shortcut and used hummus I already had.  Another great idea!!

I never had hummus with eggs — sounds like a wonderful idea!

wow, Awesome roasted cauliflower hummus bowls recipe. it's looks so delicious.

What a Great Thought! This is a great option for some vegan company I’m having this weekend. I’ll swap out tomatoes for red peppers (due to intolerance) and add roasted zucchini along with the cauliflower for extra color.

Um. Wow. This is one of the best recipes I’ve made in a long time. Thank you! I even made the sauce with almond yogurt because we don’t do dairy, and it was still amazing.

MMM love some cauliflower. Never thought of mixing it with hummus. Great and innovative recipe!

This was fabulous! Best homemade hummus ever!

Best Hummus Recipe

Add the lemon juice, tahini, garlic cloves and salt and 2-3 ice cubes, and blend for about 5 minutes until smooth. Taste and adjust as needed by adding more lemon juice or salt.

Lebanese Hummus Recipe

This creamy hummus is super smooth, quick, easy, made with minimal ingredients and tastes so fresh and flavorful.

The Best Homemade Hummus

cumin

Drain and rinse chickpeas in or colander with water. Place chickpeas on a paper towel and dry off. Using another paper towel gently rub the chickpeas to help the skin fall over. I recommend removing the skin from at least half of the chickpeas to help with a creamy texture. It&#8217;s tedious but worth it.

To a food processor add chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic cloves, cumin and salt. Blend for 2-3 minutes until the hummus is nice and creamy.

If your hummus seems too thick add a couple tablespoons of water to thin it out.

Serve immediately or store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.

Chipotle Hummus is a spicy homemade hummus recipe. Easy to make and stores easily, it is the perfect party appetizer recipe!

Chipotle Hummus

extra virgin olive oil

chickpea liquid

tahini paste

chipotle peppers in adobo sauce

fine sea salt

white pepper

pine nuts

Olive oil drizzle

In a food processor, combine 1 tablespoon chipotle peppers with chickpeas and a small amount of olive oil. Blend until smooth.

Slowly add additional olive oil and tahini, then thin out with reserved chickpea liquid. You can also use water, it just doesn&#39;t have as much flavor. Season with the salt and white pepper according to personal preference.

Top with additional chopped chipotle peppers, toasted pine nuts and additional extra virgin olive oil (if desired).

How to Make Super Creamy Hummus

baking soda (if removing the chickpea skins

lemon

Drain the chickpeas over a colander, reserving the liquid in a bowl. Skip to step 5 if not removing the skins from the chickpeas.

To remove the skins for creamier hummus: rinse the chickpeas and add them to a small microwave-safe bowl.

Toss the chickpeas in 1 ½ tsp. baking soda and microwave them for 90 seconds.

Pour the hot chickpeas into a large bowl and cover with cool water. Gently rub the chickpeas between your hands to remove the skins. Drain off the water with the skins, and repeat the process until all the skins have been removed. It may take 4-5 changes of water.

Add the chickpeas (with skins on or off), ¼ cup of chickpea liquid from the can, and all other ingredients to a food processor or blender and blend until completely smooth, about 60 seconds. If things aren’t moving around very well, you can add 2 extra tbsp. at a time of the chickpea liquid.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve with crackers, chips, veggies, or as a sandwich spread.

How to make the Best Hummus

chickpeas (- rinsed, strained, and peeled)

garlic (-

lemon (- freshly squeezed)

water (- to thin)

onion powder

cayenne pepper

extra seasonings (- to serve)

pita chips

Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Peel the skin off the beans one at a time. Using your thumb and first two fingers works best. This will take about 15 minutes or so. Set about 1/4 cup of chickpeas aside for garnish.

Place peeled garbanzo beans into a food processor. Add the garlic, tahini paste, olive oil, lemon juice, and spices. Add about 1/4 cup of cold water. Pulse until well combined.

Continue pouring additional cold water into the food processor until light and fluffy. I often use a total of 3/4 cup (or more) of water. Add it very slowly, and test it in between.

Spoon the hummus into a serving bowl. Spread it out, and then add some additional olive oil, some salt, pepper, and a bit more cayenne pepper. Add a few reserved chickpeas.

Serve hummus with pita chips and a variety of fresh vegetables, if desired.

Paprika,

parsley,

Kosher salt

If using,&nbsp;roasted garlic: Cut the top off of the head of garlic. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap in foil and place in a shallow dish. Roast until golden and soft, 40 minutes. Let cool then remove garlic cloves.

Drain chickpeas and place in the bowl of a food processor. Add garlic (if using), lemon juice, tahini, cumin, salt, red pepper flakes, and pepper. Blend until smooth.&nbsp;

Very good recipe. Everyone loved it. If you use canned beans just boil them until they're soft and then remove the skins. Makes a creamy hummus without the hassle of using dry beans.

Super creamy! It's no Shaya hummus, but it's worth making.
