Hummus





Serves 8 |
Full flavored and easy to prepare.
Ingredients:
| 2 cups well-cooked or canned chickpeas, drained, liquid reserved |
| 1/2 cup tahini, optional, with some of its oil |
| 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus oil for drizzling |
| 2 to taste garlic cloves, peeled |
| to taste salt and black pepper |
| 1 tablespoon ground cumin or paprika, plus a sprinkling for garnish |
| 1 juice of lemon, plus more as needed |
| fresh parsley leaves, chopped,for garnish |
Directions:
- Put everything except the parsley in a food processor and begin to process; add the chickpea liquid or water as needed to allow the machine to produce a smooth puree.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning (I often find I like to add much more lemon juice).
- Serve, drizzled with the olive oil and sprinkled with a bit more cumin or paprika and some parsley.
