Homemade Hummus
Creamy chickpeas blended with tahini, lemon, garlic, and cumin make a tangy dip that works just as well for scooping as spreading.
Prep 10 min ยท Makes about 2 cups
Ingredients
- 15 oz can chickpeas
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp cumin
Directions
Drain the chickpeas, then tip them into a food processor with the olive oil, lemon juice, tahini, garlic, salt, and cumin. Blend in pulses until the hummus looks mostly smooth. If it is too thick for the machine to move easily, loosen it with a couple tablespoons of water, more olive oil, or the liquid from the chickpea can. Give it a taste, then tweak the salt, cumin, lemon, or garlic however you like.
