mediterranean hummus

My family&#039;s easy authentic hummus recipe comes together in just 10 minutes! We always used canned chickpeas for convenience and just a few simple ingredients to make this wonderful creamy vegan dip.

Easy Authentic Hummus Recipe

Chick peas (1.5 cups) (see notes)

Fresh Lemon's Juice

Salt

Reserved Chickpea Liquid,

tbsp Tahini Paste

Olive oil

tsp Cumin

Ice cube (recommended)

Garlic (optional)

Parsley

Sumac

Jalapeno, roughly chopped

lemon's juice

tbsp Olive oil

Garlic cloves

To start, drain the liquid from the can of chickpeas and keep it to the side. We will be using some of it shortly.

Add the drained can of chickpeas to a high speed blender or food processor. Puree for a few seconds until more fine. Feel free to add garlic at this step if you choose too.

To this, add the rest of the ingredients. Add the salt, cumin, tahini paste, olive oil, lemon juice, and reserved liquid. Blend for about 30 seconds until the hummus is smooth and creamy. Make sure to use a spatula to bring down the ingredients that get stuck to hte side of the blender.

To make it more smooth, you can go ahead and blend in an ice cube as well. Puree together for roughky 20 more seconds.

Plate in a dish with a slight rimmed edge good for dipping. Garnish with chopped parsley, a drizzle of olive oil, and sumac on the edges. Lastly, add ta spoon or two of jalapeno sauce to the center or serve on the side.

To make the jalapeno garlic sauce, you would add the ingrdients to a mini food processor and let it puree for a few seconds until fine and sauce-like.

Enjot with fresh pita bread, pita chips, or veggies to dip.

I’ve made this recipe multiple times, and it is now my go to hummus recipe! Easy and delicious!

This is as delicious as it is easy to make. I can’t believe I ever bought my hummus at the store!

Perfect! I always make it this way, except I use fresh water. I've heard that the water in the can makes a person gassy!  And I always use garlic.   BTW, I never saw sumac available anywhere.

Great recipe. Measurements are great, smooth and creamy just the way I like it.

A healthy, satisfying hummus dip, embellished Mediterranean-style! Loaded with fresh herbs, farmer's market veggies, and Mediterranean favorites like feta cheese, olives and sun-dried tomatoes.

Mediterranean Farmer's Market Hummus Dip

oz. Sabra Hummus

Quality extra virgin olive oil

mint leaves, fresh basil leaves, baby arugula

(about 3/4 cup) summer squash slices

radishes, sliced

(about 3/4 cup) cherry tomatoes, halved or whole

Kalamata olives

tbsp sun-dried tomato bits

feta cheese

pine nuts, optional

pita bread, sliced

Extra veggies (optional)

Scoop Sabra Hummus dip into a large shallow bowl like this one, for example.  Spread using the back of a spoon or a rubber spatula. Drizzle generously with quality extra virgin olive oil (it&#8217;s a good thing if the olive oil &#8220;pools&#8221; over some parts of the hummus dip.

Next, arrange the fresh herbs and greens (mint, basil and baby arugula) atop the hummus dip. Then, add the fresh veggies, olives, and sundried tomatoes. Sprinkle feta cheese and toasted pine nuts, if using.

Serve with warm pita bread slices and extra veggies for dipping, if desired.
